If you’ve owned a vehicle for any good amount of time, then you are probably well aware of the fact that there are all kinds of different parts that might eventually need repaired or replaced about which you might not often think. One of these lesser known parts that might eventually need some service is your radiator. The radiator is an incredibly integral part of your vehicle that could lead to catastrophic damage and even dangerous situations if it isn’t in good working condition, however you don’t often need to service it because of its long quality of life.
If you think you might be in need of automotive radiator service in Palatine IL, you’ve come to the right place. Like mentioned, you don’t need to worry about it often, but as long as you do stay on top of its service it shouldn’t ever create any problems. So, when should you worry about it? Only if your vehicle is over 5 years old or has over 50,000 miles. That’s around the time when your radiator could begin needing service. All you need to do is mention it when you bring your vehicle in for other service, and we can check to make sure it’s good.
How often should I flush my radiator?
Eventually, it would be a good idea to get a radiator flush. Although you might not hear about the radiator often, you’ve probably heard of the terms coolant or antifreeze. This is the fluid that works hand in hand with your radiator, and while your radiator might not need service all that often, flushing the radiator every 30,000 miles will go a long way toward keeping it in in good condition.
