What's Included with Radiator & Cooling System at Jim Whaley Tires
Our cooling system service is comprehensive, protective, and designed to keep your engine running at optimal temperature.
- Complete Cooling System Inspection
We visually inspect your radiator, hoses, water pump, thermostat housing, and coolant reservoir for leaks, cracks, corrosion, and deterioration. We check hose clamps for tightness and look for signs of coolant seepage. A complete inspection reveals problems before they become emergencies.
- Coolant Analysis & Testing
We test your coolant's condition and concentration to determine whether it's still effective or needs replacement. Old, degraded coolant loses its protective properties and becomes corrosive to engine components. We'll let you know if your coolant needs flushing.
- Radiator Flush & Coolant Replacement
If needed, we perform a complete radiator flush to remove old, contaminated coolant and replace it with fresh coolant designed for your vehicle. A proper flush removes corrosion and debris that accumulates in the system over time. New coolant protects your engine for thousands of miles.
- Leak Detection & Diagnosis
If your system is losing coolant, we perform a thorough leak inspection to identify where it's escaping. We pressurize the system to locate hidden leaks and determine whether hoses, the radiator, water pump, or other components are the source. Identifying the leak location is the first step to fixing it.
- Water Pump & Thermostat Assessment
We evaluate your water pump for proper function and listen for bearing noise that indicates wear. We check thermostat operation to ensure your engine reaches and maintains proper temperature. These components are critical to cooling system function.
- Hose & Clamp Verification
We inspect all coolant hoses for cracks, soft spots, bulges, and deterioration. We verify hose clamps are tight and secure. Hose failures are common cooling system problems that we catch during service.
