The engine’s cooling system serves three critical functions: preventing overheating, meeting emission requirements by maintaining the engine’s temperature, and providing heat during winter months. It consists of various parts, including the thermostat, water pump, electric cooling fan, radiator, and hoses. To ensure proper functionality, it’s essential to maintain your vehicle’s cooling system.

We recommend a yearly coolant flush and regular inspections to check for signs of corrosion, fractures, or leaks. Keeping the cooling system in excellent condition will help it work effectively and keep your engine running smoothly.

To ensure optimal performance, consider a transmission fluid exchange every 50,000 miles.
