DB Engine problems rarely appear from nowhere. Here are ten signs worth getting checked before the fault develops further.
- An engine warning light
- Misfiring or rough idle
- Overheating
- Losing engine oil
- Losing coolant with no obvious leak
- Knocking, ticking or rattling noises
- Loss of power
- Difficulty starting
- White smoke from the exhaust
- Increased fuel use
Why these signs matter
None of these symptoms alone identifies the exact fault, but together they're a strong reason to get the engine inspected.
DB Autos can investigate any of these symptoms. Call 01782 844320 or bring your vehicle in.
