How many kilometers should antifreeze be replaced?
1 Answers
It is recommended to replace the coolant every 40,000 to 50,000 kilometers. Regular replacement of coolant is essential. Here is more information about coolant: 1. The full name of coolant is antifreeze coolant, but its main function is cooling rather than antifreezing. 2. Water-cooled engines rely on the continuous circulation of coolant within the engine for heat dissipation. When the engine is running, the water pump also operates, allowing the coolant to circulate within the engine and carry away excess heat. 3. There are two circulation paths for coolant within the engine: one is the major cycle, and the other is the minor cycle. When the engine has just started and the temperature is relatively low, the coolant will undergo the minor cycle, during which it does not pass through the radiator for heat dissipation. This helps the engine warm up quickly.
