Complete drain and flush of the cooling system, followed by refill with the correct coolant type and concentration for your vehicle. All coolant types: green, orange, pink, blue, and purple.
Pressurizes the system to identify leaks that are not visible at rest - pinhole leaks in the radiator, weeping hose connections, and failing seals all show up under pressure.
A pH test confirms whether the coolant's inhibitors are still active or have depleted. If the pH is still in the correct range, we will tell you the flush can wait. We do not flush coolant that does not need it.
We inspect all cooling system hoses for cracks, swelling, and softness, and test the radiator cap for correct pressure rating. Both are common failure points that a flush is a good opportunity to address.
The chemistry of coolant inhibitors is worth understanding. Different inhibitor packages - IAT (inorganic additive technology), OAT (organic acid technology), and HOAT (hybrid) - use different chemical compounds to prevent corrosion. The problem is they are not compatible with each other. Mixing green IAT coolant with orange OAT coolant does not give you a coolant with the properties of both - it gives you a coolant that may form gel deposits in the narrow passages of the water pump and heater core, and provides worse corrosion protection than either fluid alone.
Nassau County puts a specific kind of demand on cooling systems. In summer, Garden City traffic on Old Country Road means sitting with the AC running and the engine idling - the cooling system is working at close to its maximum capacity. In January, sub-freezing starts require the correct freeze protection concentration, which depends on the coolant-to-water ratio being right after a fresh flush. A system that has never been serviced on a 6-year-old vehicle is running on depleted inhibitors, and in winter you are also relying on coolant that may be less than adequately mixed for freeze protection.
We test the pH of your coolant before recommending a flush. If the inhibitors are still active and the pH is in the correct range, we will tell you that and schedule the flush for the next interval. If the fluid is acidic or contaminated, we explain what we found and do the flush the same day. Call (516) 681-0122 or stop by 640 Old Country Road in Garden City, NY.
