Purpose

One of the most interesting aspects of coolant is its composition, as it comes composed of two equal halves, that being water and antifreeze. This is what gives it the unique ability of being prohibited from freezing or boiling under natural conditions. That means it is more than capable of keeping your engine at just the right temperature, ensuring that it doesn’t become too hot or cold to function as normally. This is done through utilizing a system of pipes that enter and exit the powertrain. While this fluid is quite hardy, it will eventually come to degrade in quality over time, which is when you should look into getting a coolant flush. 

Coolant Service

For most vehicles, it is generally suggested that you have coolant service done every 30,000 miles, or once every two years. For your BMW model, you should consider taking a look at your Owner’s Manual for more specific details. Regardless, our team at our Service Department is eager to assist you. They’ll begin by taking a look at the quality and quantity of the coolant in your vehicle. If it is simply lower than usual, then your remaining supply will be topped off and you can be back on your way to Eco's Sports Park. But if there appears to be particles in the fluid, then the remaining batch will be flushed out and replaced with a fresh iteration straight from our Parts Department. 

Warning Signs

There are numerous red flags that will manifest when your vehicle is no longer able to keep up with your day-to-day routines. For instance, you may notice that you are achieving fewer miles per gallon than you once used to. If this is accompanied by your engine temperature gauge indicating that your powertrain has begun to overheat, then this may be a sign that your coolant is no longer functioning the way it should. Be sure to stay wary of any sweet smells, as this may be evidence of a coolant leak, which must be addressed as soon as possible. If you observe any of these indicators, put off your next trip across Highway 17 and schedule a service appointment today!
