Does a car need antifreeze?
1 Answers
Car needs antifreeze, and the antifreeze also needs to be replaced regularly, with a replacement cycle generally every two years or 40,000 kilometers. The functions of antifreeze: When parking in cold winter, it prevents the coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator or freezing the engine cylinder block or head. In summer when the temperature is high, it can effectively prevent boiling and avoid overheating. The hazards of lacking antifreeze: It may cause the engine or radiator to freeze and crack, leading to engine failure. It also affects the radiator's cooling efficiency, failing to achieve the necessary cooling effect, disrupting normal circulation, generating high temperatures, and in severe cases, causing engine burnout.
