Auto Cooling System Tips

  • Never open a radiator cap when the engine is hot—pressurized steam can cause severe burns
  • Flush your coolant every 2 years or 50,000 km to prevent internal corrosion
  • Use the correct type of coolant specified by your manufacturer—don't mix different colors
  • Check your coolant level regularly, especially before long trips
  • A consistently dropping coolant level without visible leaks may indicate a head gasket issue
  • Replace rubber coolant hoses every 100,000 km as preventative maintenance—they deteriorate from the inside

Frequently Asked Questions

Radiator replacement for most passenger vehicles costs $500-$1,000 including parts and labor. Trucks and SUVs can cost more due to larger radiators and additional components.

Most manufacturers recommend a coolant flush every 2 to 5 years or 50,000 to 100,000 km. Long-life coolants may have extended intervals—check your owner's manual.

Only in an emergency. Water alone doesn't provide freeze protection in Canadian winters, corrosion inhibitors, or the proper boiling point elevation. Always use the correct coolant mixture.

Immediately turn off the AC and turn the heater on full blast to help dissipate engine heat. Pull over safely, turn off the engine, and do not open the hood until it cools. Call for a tow to the nearest repair shop.
