Radiators & Cooling System

Coolant (anti-freeze) protects your engine from overheating and from freezing. The coolant’s effectiveness can diminish over time and lose many of its protective properties, causing your radiator to rust and corrode. The cooling system itself can get clogged with built-up deposits from oil, grease, scale, hose decomposition, and other materials.

Most drivers know it’s recommended that a vehicle’s oil should be changed at regular intervals. Drivers typically don’t realize, however, the proper intervals for changing their vehicle’s other vital fluids. For the cooling system, check your car’s owner's manual to see the recommended interval for changing the coolant in your vehicle.
