How to Replace the Coolant in a Lavida?
1 Answers
Lavida vehicle coolant replacement method is as follows: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection first to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in all pipelines, with a focus on the five-way water pipe. The five-way pipe is named for its five interfaces connecting various parts, and the coolant is distributed to different parts of the car through the five-way pipe to function. If there is any sign of coolant leakage in this part, the water pipe should be replaced or the interface re-secured as needed. Drain the old coolant, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir, then continuously inject clean water into the reservoir to allow it to flow through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. The water initially flowing out from the reservoir will be slightly pinkish. Continue injecting clean water until clear water flows out. Note: Remember to remove the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. About one hour after draining, add the new coolant through the radiator hose to allow the coolant to flow quickly into the radiator. Then add another bucket of coolant to the coolant reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. At this point, as some air is expelled from the cooling system, the liquid level will drop slightly. Add more coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.
