Your engine creates a massive amount of heat and if it weren’t for engine coolant, your engine would overheat and break down. At Serra Buick GMC of Champaign, IL, with convenient locations in Urbana, we understand the importance of coolant fluid. It’s also called antifreeze and its main job is to keep your engine system running at the right temperature. That’s why we keep a record of each time you have your fluid changed, and we do a thorough inspection of your coolant fluid when you take your GMC or Buick into us for service.
Coolant fluid is made from ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, protein additives, and water. It is usually green, blue, or pink in color. After your coolant has been working to keep your engine at a constant, desirable temperature, it gets old and dirty, filled with dirt and debris, and even becomes acidic, which can cause corrosion to your engine and rot it out. When you take your vehicle into Serra Buick GMC of Champaign located in Savoy, we will replace your old, dirty coolant fluid with new, clean fluid. This will allow your engine to run at maximum performance and not risk getting burned out.
It is recommended by manufacturers that you change your coolant fluid every 4,000 to 36,000 miles or every 24 to 36 months. This time also depends on your personal driving habits. If you drive more often, you will have to get the coolant changed sooner. Your cooling system is extremely important to your Buick or GMC running well and not breaking down and leaving you stranded, much less blowing out your engine. The cost of a new engine far outweighs the affordable cost of changing coolant fluid.
At Serra Buick GMC of Champaign, our certified technicians will inspect your coolant fluid and change it if necessary. This is standard during an oil change, however, if you feel your coolant needs to be changed before your next scheduled oil change, take your vehicle in for service. Our work is 100% guaranteed. Stop by today or give us a call to schedule an appointment. Alternatively, you can easily schedule an appointment online. While you wait for your coolant fluid exchange, enjoy our free amenities, such as free Wi-Fi and complimentary snacks. If you need to leave your vehicle with us for an extended period of time, we have complimentary loaners available for your use. Have a busy schedule? We have Saturday and extended hours for your convenience.
