Diagnosis And Testing - Engine Diagnosis - Introduction

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Engine diagnosis is helpful in determining the causes of malfunctions not detected and remedied by routine maintenance.

These malfunctions may be classified as either mechanical (e.g, a strange noise), or performance (e.g, engine idles rough and stalls).

Refer to DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE DIAGNOSIS - MECHANICAL  and DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE DIAGNOSIS - PERFORMANCE , for possible causes and corrections of malfunctions. Refer to FUEL SYSTEM - EXCEPT COUPE for the fuel system diagnosis.

Additional tests and diagnostic procedures may be necessary for specific engine malfunctions that cannot be isolated with the Service Diagnosis charts. Information concerning additional tests and diagnosis is provided within the following:

  1. Cylinder Compression Pressure Test
  2. Cylinder Combustion Pressure Leakage Test
  3. Cylinder Head Gasket Failure Diagnosis
  4. Intake Manifold Leakage Diagnosis
  5. Lash Adjuster (Tappet) Noise Diagnosis
