Radiator Repair & Cooling Systems
Today’s coolants last longer than ever before. Some are even supposed to last 100,000 miles! Older coolant damages your cooling system and engine. This coolant, or anti-freeze, is slowly depleted of buffering ingredients. It becomes extremely corrosive, literally eating holes in your cooling system components. Corrosion damage, as well as rust and scale, clog the passageways that bring the water through the radiator. They also choke off the flow. This results in an overheated engine that may be damaged beyond repair.
Auto manufacturers try to show that their vehicles require less maintenance than their competition. Don’t let your vehicle’s engine be damaged from corrosive coolants or anti freeze that has been left for too long. Most of your 100,000 mile coolant should be changed by 60,000 miles or 5 years.

Radiator Problem Symptoms
Your vehicle’s radiator is the heart of the cooling system that keep it running. The radiator fluid pulls the immense heat from the engine by circulating water and cool air from outside the system. Without a radiator, or with a broken one, your engine will overheat and pistons would break.
This can and will cause catastrophic damage to your vehicle. It is absolutely critical for the life of your vehicle to repair a broken radiator immediately. Not all radiator problems are obvious, so use these symptoms to know when it might be going out.
Radiator Leaks
One of the easiest symptoms to spot is a radiator leak. If you see a puddle under your vehicle that’s either green or red and is slimy you’ve likely got a radiator leak. Radiator fluid is toxic and will harm animals or people, so it’s important to get leaks cleaned up. A radiator leak can lead to serious damage to your engine.
Vehicle Overheats
Another common symptom of a bad radiator is your vehicle overheats. Even if the overheating is only minor it is a huge sign that something isn’t right with your vehicle’s engine cooling system. In most cases issues turns out to be a minor leak, but can cause major damage.
Loss in Pressure
Radiators are designed by your vehicle’s manufacturer to run at a certain pressure. Generally, the pressure should be between 10 to 12 PSI. Radiators that have excessive corrosion will have lower pressure levels and should be serviced immediately. Owners can check the pressure level with gauges that fit over where the radiator cap goes.
Rust On The Radiator
It’s hard to see what’s going on inside your radiator and it’s components, but you can watch for signs of rust. If you see rust on the radiator, around it, or near it’s hoses you should take those signs serious. It is a clear indication you’ve got leaks or might have lower pressure.
Coolant Levels Low
When your radiator, hoses, or other components of your vehicle’s engine cooling system leak, it puts your coolant level low. While coolant does deplete naturally over time sudden drops are a symptom that something is wrong. Pop the hood and check your hoses and connections to look for leaks. If those areas are good the system could have another leak hidden somewhere.
