Antifreeze/Coolant Service

Engines need to maintain the correct operating temperature to work properly. Your Engine Cooling System is made to remove heat from the engine. This operation is successful by moving antifreeze/coolant around the components where heat is generated and carrying the heat to the radiator where it is cooled.

To keep your engine from overheating or freezing, your engine cooling system needs the proper amount and mix of antifreeze/coolant and water. Antifreeze/coolant also hinders the ability for rust and corrosion to form in the cooling system.

Our cooling system services include:

  • Examination of the radiator and radiator hoses for leaks
  • Removal of the old antifreeze/coolant
  • A refill your cooling system with the correct amount of antifreeze/coolant your vehicle needs

A Radiator Cap, also known as a "pressure cap", controls pressure in the cooling system. The cap can be mounted on the radiator filler neck or on top of the coolant reservoir.

Our radiator/pressure cap replacement services include:

  •  Examination for antifreeze/coolant leaks and/or damage at the radiator/pressure cap to filler neck or reservoir seals
  • A visual inspection of the cap for cracks, seal or thread damage, and tab retention damage
  • Completion of a pressure test to make sure the cap holds the proper pressure as designed
  • Replacement of the radiator/pressure cap with a new one that meets OEM requirements
