What is the freezing point of antifreeze?
1 Answers
Antifreeze has freezing points of -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, and -40°C. When selecting antifreeze, it is generally advisable to choose one with a freezing point at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. Can different antifreeze brands be mixed: It is necessary to use the same brand of antifreeze. Different brands of antifreeze may have varying production formulas, and mixing them could lead to chemical reactions between additives, rendering them ineffective. How to determine if antifreeze is low: Observe the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to low antifreeze levels, though it could also be caused by excessively high engine temperature. Check the antifreeze reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving; add antifreeze promptly. Check the fluid level markings on the antifreeze tank. The antifreeze level should normally be between the maximum and minimum marks. If it is below the minimum mark, it indicates a lack of antifreeze.
