The tutorial for replacing coolant in Jinbei Haise is: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipes, with special attention to the five-way water pipe. The five-way pipe is named for its five connecting interfaces that link various parts. The coolant flows through the five-way pipe and is then distributed to different parts of the car to function. If there is any leakage of coolant in this section, 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 and continue to fill it until water continuously flows through the engine cooling system. Then, start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water flowing out of the reservoir will have a faint pink color. Keep adding clean water until the water coming out is clear. Note: Don’t forget to remove the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new coolant through the radiator hose, which allows the coolant to flow quickly into the radiator. Then, add another container of coolant to the reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. As the cooling system expels some air, the coolant level will drop. Add more coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.
I've done the coolant replacement a few times, and the key takeaway is safety first—never touch a hot engine. The radiator in the Jinbei Haise is located under the hood, with a drain plug at the bottom. Use a wrench to loosen it and place a bucket underneath to catch the old coolant—it's toxic, so don't pour it carelessly. After draining the old fluid, replace it with new coolant, mixed according to the manual's ratio, typically 50% coolant and 50% water. Use a funnel to slowly fill it up to the MAX line. Start the engine and let it idle, waiting for the fan to kick in and release air bubbles. Top up with water if the level drops. The whole process takes about half an hour—remember to wear gloves to prevent splashes. Regularly changing the coolant prevents engine corrosion, saving money and ensuring peace of mind. Check and replace it every two years or 20,000 kilometers.
