Cooling System Flush Service

Cooling system flush service. What is it all about?

Cooling system flush service – Your cooling system is what keeps your car from overheating, therefore it is very important. It works by circulating a mixture of water and coolant through the engine. Over time the coolant mixture becomes contaminated with scale and rust, which can clog and damage the cooling system components. A cooling system flush essentially flushes out the entire system of contaminants and replaces the coolant mixture with fresh coolant and water.

Follow the service maintenance schedule provided by the manufacturer to get the coolant replaced at regular intervals. In general, it is a good practice to change the coolant every 60,000-80,000 KM
