Radiator Repair in Sacramento, CA
There are specific engine components that produce friction while you drive, and that friction also produces heat. Keeping up with the internal cooling system maintenance on your car can be very difficult. However, a variety of auto repair services, including radiator repair, are the area of expertise for our kind, reliable, and competent staff of qualified mechanics. Your car's cooling system prevents overheating and mechanical failure. The cooling system's many parts work together to accomplish one crucial task: distributing coolant throughout your engine to absorb and release heat. In order to support the proper operation of all other engine components, this lowers the temperature.
The standard cooling system is made up of the following components:
- Thermostat and housing
- Water pump
- Electric cooling fan
- Radiator and hoses
When our mechanics perform radiator repair and radiator flush, they will inspect:
- Your fluid level
- Signs of corrosion and oxidation
- The mechanical parts, including the thermostat and fans
- Belts and hoses, for signs of fractures or leaks
- Fluids or deposits, which might show indications of leaks or damages
When driving in exceptionally cold weather, your car has to have the right amount of antifreeze in it to keep the liquid coolant and other engine fluids from freezing.
Your car's cooling system will eventually accumulate scale deposits that will restrict the flow of coolant. This is a clear indication that your radiators need to be flushed. Allowing our qualified specialists to do routine vehicle checks is essential if you want your car to operate for as long as possible and keep cool. Not maintaining your car's cooling system might result in serious damage or even complete engine failure.
Every 30,000 miles or five years, a specialist should come out and flush our coolant system and antifreeze. Additionally, it's a good idea to periodically check the antifreeze—for instance, after every oil change—to make sure there are no leaks.
