How often should a radiator be serviced?
Most vehicles benefit from radiator servicing every 12 months or 20,000 km—whichever comes first. In hot or dusty environments, more frequent servicing may be necessary. Regular maintenance includes inspecting for leaks, checking coolant levels, flushing the system and pressure testing the radiator. This helps prevent overheating, corrosion and blockages. Following your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations is important, especially if you drive in extreme conditions, tow heavy loads or use your vehicle off-road frequently.
What is involved in a radiator flush service?
A radiator flush involves draining old coolant and running a cleaning solution through the system to remove rust, sediment and debris. The technician then refills the system with fresh coolant, ensuring air pockets are removed. This service helps restore proper coolant flow and improves temperature regulation. Flushing also reduces the risk of corrosion inside the radiator and engine block, especially if the vehicle has used poor-quality coolant or hasn’t been serviced in a long time.
How do I know if my radiator needs servicing?
Common signs include overheating, low coolant levels, rust-coloured coolant, visible leaks, and a sweet smell under the bonnet. You might also notice the heater not working properly or temperature gauge fluctuations. If any of these appear, a radiator service is recommended. A technician can perform pressure tests, visual inspections and coolant checks to confirm the issue. Servicing early can prevent major failures like blown head gaskets or complete engine overheating in the future.
