Cooling system service

Keep the engine’s temperature under control.

Call to schedule

What’s included

The cooling system moves heat away from the engine using coolant, a radiator, hoses and other components. A low coolant level or temperature warning can indicate a leak or another problem. An inspection identifies what needs attention before replacing fluid or parts.

  • Review the symptom

    Describe overheating, visible leaks or recent coolant additions.
  • Inspect components

    Ask about the radiator, connections, hoses and other parts relevant to the concern.
  • Confirm the repair

    Review any required parts and the correct coolant specification before work begins.

How it works

Engine cooling concerns deserve a clear diagnosis. Coolant maintenance, hose inspection and leak checks address different needs. Explain any temperature warning or fluid loss so the store can determine the right service for your vehicle.

  1. A finger pointing to the coolant level in a reservoir

    Step 1: Check the coolant

    With the engine cold, the coolant level and condition are checked.
  2. A cooling-system pressure tester on a coolant tank

    Step 2: Pressure-test for leaks

    A pressure tester shows whether the system holds pressure or is leaking somewhere.
  3. Gloved hands squeezing a radiator hose

    Step 3: Hoses and connections

    Radiator hoses, clamps and connections are checked for cracks, softness and seepage.

Your questions, answered

Still have a question? Call Anaheim: (714) 831-2188

Will adding coolant repair a leak?

Adding fluid does not repair the underlying leak. The system needs inspection to identify the cause and determine the right repair.

Can I mix different coolant types?

Use the specification required by your vehicle manufacturer. Color alone is not a reliable way to identify compatibility.

How much does cooling system service cost?

It depends on your vehicle and what it needs, so your store quotes it after looking at the vehicle and before any work is done.

How long does cooling system service take?

It depends on your vehicle and what the inspection finds. Call Anaheim for the time your vehicle needs.

Can I combine this with another service?

Call your selected store to discuss the work together and confirm which services it can provide for your vehicle.
