How Often Should a Sedan Be Topped Up with Water?
1 Answers
How often a sedan needs to be topped up with water depends on the scale of the car's radiator. When the coolant level in the radiator falls below the MIN mark, it indicates that water needs to be added. It's important to note that the water added here refers to antifreeze, not tap water. The full name of antifreeze should be called antifreeze coolant, which refers to a coolant with antifreeze properties. It prevents the coolant from freezing in cold winter conditions, which could otherwise cause the radiator to crack or damage the engine cylinder block or head. Antifreeze is a coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers multiple functions, including preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and protecting against scale and corrosion throughout the year.
