Cooling System Check with ACDelco Ipswich

Warning lights on the dash or your temperature gauge is running in the red? Engine overheating? Coolant leaks on the drive? We can check your cooling system for $165 including GST.

Our inspection includes a pressure test to help check there are no leaks, a visual inspection to ensure no loose clamps or fittings and no visible damage to your radiator or hoses. We also check the coolant level to ensure your system is filled to the specified level. Coolant is your engine’s lifeblood. The fluid keeps the motor at the correct operating temperature, helping it to warm up quickly in cold weather and not get too hot when under stress – and when mixed with the correct antifreeze it prevents damage in cold weather.

Your vehicle's coolant system consists of an expansion tank, a radiator, a water pump, a thermostat and a series of pipes that connect all of these components to each other and the engine block. The coolant runs through channels within the block to help transfer heat away from the engine and keep it at peak operating temperature throughout the year, under a range of operating conditions.
