Why radiator health matters

Your radiator keeps engine temperatures in a safe range. A faulty radiator can quickly lead to overheating, coolant loss and severe engine damage. Early inspection prevents breakdowns and reduces the risk of costly repairs.

Common signs your radiator needs attention

If you notice any of the following, bring your vehicle in for a full check:

• Engine overheating while driving or idling
  
  

• Coolant puddles under the vehicle or low coolant level
  
  

• Thick, discoloured or sludgy coolant
  
  

• Repeated temperature spikes or the temperature gauge fluctuating
  
  

• Steam from the engine bay or a burning smell
