What is the Engine Coolant Flush Service?

In order to keep the temperatures of the engine in check, the fluid circulating among the components must be new and fresh. It’s important to check the cooling system fluid often so the engine can continue operating at a normal temperature. During the typical coolant flush service, old fluid gets removed and new coolant is added. At Spitzer CDJR Cleveland, we offer this valuable cooling system service in Ohio to keep your car running as it should. Schedule your auto repair and maintenance with our Service Center to get started.

Why Does the Engine Need Fresh Coolant?

The anti-freeze found in the engine will start to build up contaminants that can harm the motor and its components. Without a coolant flush service, the contaminants are going to wear the vital parts faster, including the water pump. With this simple fluid exchange, you also keep the motor operating at a normal temperature. This is important whether you are dealing with winter cold or summer heat.

How often do we recommend an engine cooling system flush? In general, the vehicle’s cooling system should be serviced every 30,000 miles or two years, whichever one happens first. However, the auto manufacturer might recommend something different. You may also need to have it performed more frequently if you are hard on your vehicle. Talk to one of our factory-trained technicians to gain more insight.

What Happens During a Flush of the Coolant Fluid?

With your regularly scheduled coolant flush service, we do more than replace the fluid. First, we remove all of the contaminated fluid from the system, but we must then replace it with new coolant. In addition to the radiator flush, we are going to inspect the entire system. If there is any wear, it’s important to deal with it promptly, however, this is less likely to occur by following the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations for service.

During the inspection, we look at the water pump, hoses and radiator to ensure everything continues to operate efficiently. If the vehicle requires special additives, we will discuss those needs with you as well. Sometimes, an additive can prolong the coolant life and reduce corrosion over time. It might also boost the performance of the engine. Our team is always looking for ways to exceed your expectations.
