FAQs
Everything You Need To Know
How do I know if my radiator needs repairing?
Common signs of radiator problems include rising engine temperature, coolant leaks under the car, rust-coloured or sludgy coolant, and a sweet smell from the engine bay. You might also notice the temperature gauge fluctuating or steam coming from under the bonnet. If you experience any of these, book a radiator inspection immediately to avoid overheating and engine damage.
How often should I flush or service my radiator?
Most vehicles should have their radiator flushed and coolant replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometres, or every two to three years. This prevents corrosion and blockages from forming inside the system. However, driving conditions, coolant type, and vehicle age can affect how often servicing is required, so it’s best to follow your manufacturer’s schedule or ask your mechanic for advice.
What does a radiator service include?
A radiator service involves a full inspection of the cooling system, pressure testing for leaks, flushing out old coolant and contaminants, and refilling with new coolant and antifreeze. Mechanics may also check the hoses, thermostat, radiator cap, and water pump to ensure the entire system is operating correctly. Regular servicing keeps your cooling system efficient and helps extend your engine’s life.
