Seeing a check engine light illuminate your Range Rover's dashboard is always concerning, but it can be especially worrisome during cold winter. Harsh winter weather puts additional strain on vehicle components, making it crucial to address any warning lights promptly. As a dealership serving Grand Junction and the surrounding areas, Land Rover Roaring Fork is here to help you understand what your SUV's check engine lights could mean this winter.
Check Engine Light
The check engine light is a catch-all warning indicating various issues with your Range Rover SUV's battery or emissions system. It could also indicate more serious issues like an engine misfire. Garfield County winters can be harsh, so don't hesitate to visit our service center if the check engine light illuminates.
Low Coolant Temperature Light
Your Range Rover's low coolant temperature light typically comes on when the coolant temperature is below the normal operating range. In the winter, this could indicate that your coolant is frozen, preventing proper circulation through the engine. Iron Mountain Hot Springs may sound inviting on a chilly day, but not if your Range Rover's coolant gives you trouble.
Low Oil Pressure Light
The low oil pressure warning light or message signals that your Range Rover's engine is not receiving adequate oil pressure for proper lubrication. Cold winter temperatures can cause oil to thicken, triggering this warning light. If you're headed out on I-70 for some winter fun, make sure to have your oil pressure checked before hitting the road.
Battery Warning Light
If the battery warning light comes on, it means your Range Rover's charging system is malfunctioning. Cold weather can strain your battery, so this light is more likely to appear during the winter months. Don't let a weak battery put a damper on your trip to Hanging Lake Trail - stop by Land Rover Roaring Fork for a battery check.
Don't let winter check engine lights put a chill on your cold weather adventures. Land Rover Roaring Fork is here to keep your SUV running smoothly all winter long. And if you decide it's time for an upgrade, we have a fantastic selection from the new Range Rover lineup to choose from in our new inventory, including the rugged new Range Rover Sport and the sleek new Range Rover Velar.
