What should Brampton drivers know about engine and transmission problems?
These are general facts about engine and transmission repair that apply to any vehicle in Ontario. For advice about your own vehicle, call (905) 450-3300.
- A flashing check engine light usually means a misfire that can overheat and damage the catalytic converter. A steady light means a stored fault that should be read soon.
- Overheating is most often caused by low coolant, a leaking radiator or hose, a stuck thermostat, a failed cooling fan or a worn water pump. Driving on while the gauge is high can warp the cylinder head.
- Automatic transmission fluid wears out. The owner's manual gives the service interval, and fluid that is dark or smells burnt is a sign the transmission is overdue.
- Fluid colour helps identify a leak: engine oil is brown or black, coolant is usually green, orange or pink, and automatic transmission fluid is red or brown.
