Your engine runs at about 200F. The coolant system is what keeps it from destroying itself.
What Is a Coolant Flush?
A coolant flush drains old coolant, cleans the system, and refills with fresh antifreeze. Over time coolant degrades and becomes acidic, attacking aluminum components and rubber hoses.
How Often Do You Need a Coolant Flush?
Most manufacturers recommend every 50,000 to 100,000 km or every 5 years.
Signs Your Coolant Needs Attention
Temperature gauge running high. Brown or rust-coloured coolant. Sweet smell from the engine bay. White smoke from the exhaust.
