Where is the coolant drain port located on the Skoda Superb?

The coolant drain port on the Skoda Superb is located on the lower side of the radiator. Coolant is a special additive-containing liquid primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and inhibiting scale and corrosion throughout the year. How to replace coolant: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipes, with particular attention to the five-way hose. Coolant flows through the five-way hose and is distributed to different parts of the vehicle to function. If there is any coolant leakage in this section, replace the hose or resecure the connection as needed. Drain the old coolant and then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add water to the coolant reservoir and continue filling until clean water flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water draining from the reservoir may appear slightly pinkish. Continue adding clean water until the outflowing water is clear. Note: Remember 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. Then, fill the coolant reservoir with another bottle of coolant until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. As some air is expelled from the cooling system, the coolant level will drop. Add more coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.
