Radiator Flush
& Fill Service
What is a Radiator Flush
& Fill Service?
Because it is vital that your vehicle's
cooling system perform efficiently, the radiator should be serviced
regularly. During the 20-30 minute service:
- Rust, corrosion and contaminated engine
coolant will be removed.
- The cooling system will be refilled with
the appropriate ratio of water and anti-freeze/coolant to protect
against freezing, boil-over and corrosion.
What are the benefits of a
Radiator Flush & Fill Service?
Your vehicle's engine cooling system will
operate at the correct temperature and avoid the delays, expense and
frustration of a radiator boil-over or winter freeze-up. In addition,
anti-freeze contains additives that:
- Protect the metal surfaces of the
radiator, heater core and engine block against rust and corrosion.
- Lubricate the water pump.
- Minimize foaming within the system
allowing the cooling system to operate at optimum efficiency.
- Maintain vehicle warranty requirements.
How often should a Radiator
Flush & Fill Service be performed?
Grease Monkey recommends that you have the
radiator flushed and filled in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's
recommended service intervals.
Your Grease Monkey technician will check
the resource manual for the proper service interval for your specific
vehicle.
