How many liters of coolant are needed for a Lavida replacement?
1 Answers
Lavida requires 6.3 liters of coolant. Coolant replacement method: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipelines, with a focus on the five-way hose. The five-way hose is named for its five connections to various parts, and the coolant is distributed to different sections of the car through this hose to perform its function. If there is any coolant leakage in this part, replace the hose or re-secure the connections as needed. Drain the old coolant, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir and continuously inject water into the reservoir so that it flows through the engine cooling system. Then, start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. The water initially flowing out of the reservoir will have a faint pink color. Continue adding clean water until the outflow is clear. Note: Remember to remove the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new coolant through the radiator hose, which allows the coolant to flow quickly into the radiator. Then, add another bucket of coolant to the reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. During this time, the coolant level will drop slightly as air is expelled from the cooling system. Add more coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.
