How often should a radiator be serviced?
Most radiators should be inspected and serviced every two to three years, or according to your vehicle manufacturer’s schedule. A standard service might include flushing old coolant, checking for leaks or corrosion, and inspecting hoses and pressure levels. Regular servicing keeps your cooling system running efficiently, helps prevent breakdowns, and extends the life of both your radiator and engine. Vehicles in hot climates or used for towing may require more frequent checks.
What causes a radiator to overheat?
Several factors can lead to an overheating radiator. These include low coolant levels, internal blockages, a faulty thermostat, broken water pump, damaged hoses, or a fan failure. External issues like debris blocking the radiator grille can also reduce airflow and cooling performance. Overheating should never be ignored, as it can cause serious engine damage. If your temperature gauge climbs or steam appears, stop driving and seek professional assistance immediately.
Can I flush my radiator myself?
Flushing a radiator can be done at home using a flush kit, water, and new coolant, but it must be done carefully. Improper flushing can leave behind air pockets, introduce contaminants, or mix incompatible coolant types. Professionals use specialised equipment to fully clean the system, test pressure, and ensure coolant is correctly balanced. If you're unsure or want to avoid mess and risk, it's safer to have the job done by an experienced technician.
