Where is the drain plug located on the Great Wall M4 radiator?
2 Answers
The drain outlet of the M4 engine radiator is located at the bottom of the radiator. Below is relevant information: 1. The Haval M4 is equipped with a self-developed engine by Great Wall, a 1.5L VVT all-aluminum engine, which is widely used in multiple products under the Great Wall brand. Its mature reliability is unquestionable, and the performance of 78kW and 139N·m should be more than sufficient to drive this small car. Four-wheel disc brakes are uncommon in this class, and the rear longitudinal arm torsion beam composite suspension is semi-independent. 2. In terms of exterior dimensions, the Haval M4 can be considered a typical compact SUV. Looking at the domestic SUV market, it seems only the Haval M series is involved in this SUV segment. A ground clearance of 185mm and larger tire size already demonstrate its off-road capability. For consumers who desire an SUV but are troubled by urban parking difficulties, a compact SUV like the Haval M4 might be a perfect compromise.
I've worked on quite a few Great Wall vehicles recently. For the M4 model, the radiator drain plug is usually located at the bottom right side of the radiator. You'll need to get underneath to see it - there's a plastic or metal screw plug at the very bottom of the radiator, often hidden behind a protective cover. Just use a wrench to turn it counterclockwise to open.
Important safety notes:
1) Always let the engine cool completely before draining - never attempt this when hot to avoid burns.
2) Place a drain pan underneath to catch coolant and prevent spills.
3) After refilling with new coolant, remember to properly bleed air from the system to ensure normal operation.
This area tends to accumulate mud and rust, so regular inspection can prevent the plug from seizing. If you encounter difficulties, it's best to visit a reputable repair shop for assistance.
