How to Change Coolant

- The name antifreeze leads people to believe that it's only job is to lower the freezing point of the coolant in your engine. In fact, it also raises the boiling point and prevents corrosion of waterways in your engine's cylinder-head and block. If your vehicle's cooling system only contained water, you would quickly run the risk of damaging the internal parts of the engine, which would lead to premature component wear. I think you will agree antifreeze is important! It should be renewed every two years and at the start of winter, you should test the strength of the antifreeze in the cooling system.

A clear. concise video, to the point. And what a lovely technician man.
Finally a video showing exactly how to change coolant in a vag car. I’ve looked everywhere for this
What do you think about changing over dexcool to regular coolant? I have an 05 Buick Century, and dexcool is not good for the head gasket in that particular year, make, model, but that's the original coolant that the car comes with. It's a defect that has since been fixed in newer models, but I have the older model and I'm looking to change it out completely.
hope you can help me my car has never gave me any trouble until, two days ago as, I looked at the Garage I noticed my gauge had started to go from the sweet spot, a 16th of an inch about, I didn't know what the story was then after I drove it for a bit longer I could see water starting to drip on the driver's side in front of the wheel Arch, how do I know whether this is my pump or whether it is simply a leaking hose, know I am going to get checked out, but I would just like an answer for this so some mechanic doesn't turn to me, your pump is gone, Iol I was thinking to myself if the pump was gone then it shouldn't build up the pressure, to push the water out of ,hopefully loose hose or something. can you give me any ideas or suggestions ways of knowing if it is a water pump, as opposed to just A leek.
Helpful- thanks.
Where is the radiator cap? you refilled through the expansion tank?
Non-tightening clip on a pressurized hose...?
specially now its very easy to changes the coolant fluids not like befor bcoz now we have a machine to use, to changes the coolant fluids...
Thank you 🙏
Hi what coolant do I need for a Renault traffic van
I have a Hyunday Coupe 2000. The heating doesn't work on the AC. If I do this will it fix it?
you also need to remove engine side drain 19mm bolt (seen @2:20 on top left side of screen) to let the coolant behind the thermostat out!
Persian5word can you put distilled water to rinse?
@@speacialsedition that would be recommended to properly drain and clean the cooling system ... otherwise it would be a waste of time to do anything at all
hi mate this anti-freeze it is already mix ready too use or need to mix whit water thank you ...
😂
How about emptying the old coolant in the heater by switching the ignition on and turning the heater control to hot position when draining old coolant. Its a surprising omission on an otherwise good production.
You need that for what?
@@marcocarvalho3619 to get most of the old coolant out
Superb ,,i never knew it was 100 % anti freeze you added, i thought you added water aswell ? Gonna di my newly aquired traffic 127 sport b4 winter,,many thanks ,,good to see Jason from Take that has found a new job !! 😂
Per the video, it wasn’t full concentration but rather a mixture with water. Normally use 50-50 distilled water and appropriate coolant (G12 spec for VW)
Most come premixed ratio ready too use. You just make sure it’s the correct type for your vehicle. A wrong type may destroy your caskets.
What about the coolant behind the thermostat?? Surely it didn't drain that too.
Hi i have a problem with my 2003 saab turbo showing up on display coolant level low so i checked and its full any ideas thanks
sounds like a sensor, possibly the sensor in the coolant reservoir
sensor may not be working, or check the tube inside coolent case
And the block at what time did you clean it?
Good video but need to do some more steps. This replaced at best 50% of the old coolant since the engine block coolant was not drained. To do a more thorough job replace with distilled water over 4-5 drains/cycles. Then find out what the total capacity is and how much water you are draining during the drains to determine the final 100% coolant amount to fill with. Assumption here is that the engine block area will have 100% distilled water after 4-5 drains and then you add 100% coolant to get to the 50/50 mixture (based on total capacity and amount being drained of course) you want. Thanks!
So to completely get rid of old coolant from the engine block flush with distilled water a couple of times until it comes out clean ? Is this what you mean because I'm trying to work on my own car
That's how I have been doing it for years. With success.
@@ahmadjwaidi2970 Yes!
well, to save money you better put tap water in it, for the flushing procedure. Also getting the water heated up by driving the car around with the water pump running will really help flushing it. For such a short period the tap water won't hurt the engine. Then put new coolant and distilled water in it.
@@SE45CX save money? Talking maybe eight or 10 bucks in the distilled water! Definitely won’t hurt the engine for a few days as long as you’re not in freezing temperatures
you just drained coolant from the radiator the job is half done?
+Protab Ali lol did you finish watching the video? he pours more coolant back in. fool.
NIGGAS nou
lool.
@@bernieorbust6104 he talk about the coolant in the engine...
Hi bro,thanks for share the procedure.
I was think that have air purgue later change fluid.
Its very easy,in my E36 cost a lot purgue system coolant.
do you have to drain the overflow plastic tank before you drain the radiator?
It’s doesn’t matter but I like to go from big to small radiator first then
Reservoir (coolant tank)
merhaba, dilinizi bilmiyorum sadece görüntü ile anlamaya çalışıyorum. siz sadece antifriz mi kullandınız yoksa koyacağınız antifriz miktarı kadar suyu boşaltıp üzerine antifriz mi boşalttınız?
It's a bit late but he used ready mix antifreeze so it's already mixed to the correct % of water and coolant!
You the maaan... Thank you brother Allah bless you
and when the thermostat actually opens and there's an empty radiator??? - Nothing mentioned about the radiator cap or managing to fill a radiator that won't fill from the header tank..
i had to drain from the engine block because it was very rusty
this coolant cant be found in canada toronto...can you imagine ?
As far as I know, in this engine (VAG 1.8 20V Gasoline) you should refill coolant as follows:
- slacken the clip and withdraw the heater unit supply hose from its bulkhead stub until the bleed hole is open,
- detach the expansion tank and rise it up about 10cm over the engine,
- slowly pour coolant until it starts to run from the hole in heater hose,
- squeeze the hoses to free trapped air,
- attach expansion tank as normal,
- fill the coolant to the maximum level,
- run the engine until it heats to working level (10 minutes to make sure that the thermostat was opened),
- let it cool and check the coolant level again.
when changing the coolant fluids it must changes all!! what I mean raditor reservor and also coolant fluids from the engine block!!!...
Please tell me something; after 4 months of winter storage do I need to warm the car up ( in Spring time) and cool it down and drain the coolant or just drain it after car sitting 4 months...?
During winter storage its best to start the vehicle as often as you can and let it run. The coolant should be okay i would let it run for a bit and possibly add some if it appears low.
Utopian = many thanks...
canada painter just drive it pal and it will be sound just keep an I out on your levels
That was just the radiator drained not the engine block or heater matrix. The old coolant that was in the engine block when the thermostat was closed will still be there !
And how do i drain that
m.th-cam.com/video/mxm3E5SkHrI/w-d-xo.html
To change the coolant, the whole system needs to be drained off and flushed with water to get all the old coolant mix out.
When I say system, I refer to the radiator, all pipes, the engine block, the header tank and the heater matrix.
On new fill, about 0.5L of water in to start with, just in case you've left a hose off/loose!
Do local recycling centres take antifreeze?
yes!
Nice way
YOU DIDNT SAY WHERE THE HOSE LOCATION TO DRAIN
You havent changed all the coolant unless you emptied out the stuff in the engine block aswell.
mitos meios - you have no idea what you're talking about Mitos.
@@condor5635 lol
In what way is the hot air an indication of there being no air in the system?
Even with 0 coolant and only air the engine will warm and the heaters will work...
The hot liquid is what heats the heater core

Does it fuck mate... The coolant passed through heater matrix then fan blows heat into cabin.. no coolant no heat..
How about "How to change coolant without a mess"? Any ideas?
When you're dealing with coolant or oil, you run the risk of there being some kind of mess ... if that bugs you then dont do any diy's on your own vehicle
an aluminum pan?
Pay a garage to do it for you
Now I have got clear idea about the workshop you paid for the job.
This is using normal water?
No, only use water in a emergency, other than that use coolant. For the color you can check your owners manual.
Jean Thanks 🙏🏻
My Peugeot Haynes manual states that the coolant system is "sealed for life,and is unlikely need to be drained"
Me now confused ?
Sounds about right for a peugeot
They forgot to print that not changing coolant will eventually kill your engine. So i suppose technically it is filled for life. Id rather the longer life afforded by replacing the coolant ;)
@@thektmkid6990 It's not more right or wrong than for any car manufacturer. But no, it can't possibly state that anywhere. The only "sealed for life" fluid is gearbox oil which in theory never needs to be replaced unless it's an automatic.
How long does a Peugeot last ?/ maybe its life time :)
French cars are like French people, not worth a fuck
It is not a sufficient video... since regardless of the video topic you need to bleed the system to make sure there no air bubbles in coolant circulation. If you do a job do it right,,,, and check everything.
Dude galsses
Such a wimp comment
Yuhu
Safety glasses not needed
Tf why isn’t he wearing goggles
Who wears goggles for a coolant change?
What's up with the background 90's porno music?
ei ollu lähtemäänkään oikenlainen video
Well, it isn't professional to drain the coolant without putting your glasses on.
you need to pour the coolant into the radiator not into reservoir.
Wear safety goggles.
