How often should the coolant be replaced in a Lavida?
1 Answers
The coolant in a Lavida is recommended to be replaced every 40,000 kilometers. Below are some precautions to take when replacing the coolant: 1. The most important thing is to wait until the vehicle has cooled down. Never replace the coolant when the engine is at a high temperature. Not only is there a risk of burns, but draining the coolant while the engine is hot can also affect the vehicle's cooling. 2. There are several methods to drain the coolant. A more standardized procedure is to lift the car, unscrew the drain plug at the bottom, and let the coolant drain out through this hole. 3. When adding new coolant, unscrew the drain plug near the "upper hose" and continue to fill with coolant. Once the coolant flows steadily from the drain plug without any air bubbles, tighten the drain plug. 4. You can directly pour about 4 liters of coolant into the reservoir. Stop filling once the fluid level reaches the MAX mark. The engine generates a significant amount of heat during operation, with 60% of this heat being dissipated into the surrounding space through the cooling system.
