Q: When do I need a radiator flush?

asked byMay 04, 2016

最近,我去了一个valvoline进行换油,他们非常坚信我只是基于我的里程需要一个散热器/冷却液冲洗,但在我看来,他们似乎只是在试图上涨。我认为他们没有注意到一个实际问题。即使没有问题,我应该做这个常规的维护吗?大约要花多少钱?

My car has 62000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.

Hello. Your coolant should be changed as regular maintenance. The coolant in your car should be changed about every 5 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. Having it changed will help the engine and various other components last longer.

如果冷却液看起来仍然很干净,那么我只会将冷却液排出并重新填充。如果冷却液非常脏,则可能需要更高的成本冲洗。如果您需要完成此操作并想要价格报价,则可以将经过认证的机械师来到您的家或办公室,以确保您的coolant is maintained properly.
