How Often Should the Coolant Be Replaced in a 10th Generation Accord?
1 Answers
Honda Accord's coolant is recommended to be replaced every two years or 40,000 kilometers. If long-life coolant is used, the replacement interval can be longer. Daily use of coolant: The coolant filler cap is located near the cooling fan in the engine compartment. Simply unscrew the cap to add new coolant. For routine maintenance, it's essential to check whether the fluid level is between the max and min marks. If the level drops significantly, there might be a coolant leak, and the vehicle should be taken to a repair shop for inspection. Pay attention to coolant quality: If the coolant is of poor quality or even counterfeit, it won't serve its intended purpose. Coolant is a mixture of antifreeze and water in a specific ratio. Automobile manufacturers usually specify the mixing ratio for different low-temperature antifreeze grades in the user manual and also designate the type of antifreeze, which should not be mixed with other types.
