PEAK How to Change Your Antifreeze

[angietn12]

I wish I read this before I replaced the coolant.....If I put the cap back on right after I 'bleed the engine' should I wait till tomorrow morning to try and relieve the car of the pressure build up?

[yellowcow13]

One question... should i run the engine with hose water for a min or two to flush the coolent out of the engine.

[JSBPisgah]

Are you leaving the radiator cap off to bleed, or just the overflow reservoir cap?

[11magana]

Might be a dumb question but here it goes.. do you have to drain the reservoir or does it drain when you pull the plug?

[ima14yearoldmechanic]

@11magana just pull the drain plug it will get rid of everything.

hi i had a question..so the dealer changed the coolant fluid but when i opened to have a look i could see some particles that was there before i gave the car to him..so shouldnt the fluid be clear ?thanks

@lexusfan100 it looks like the dealer didnt clean or flush out your car man,, he just drained it, then added new fluids. really if he said hes flushing, hes not, jes just emptying and retoppping.

if it looks like a muddy substance is what your still seeeing, he didnt flush it like this guy on thie video. hope that helped. what car you got ?
