Why Change Your Coolant?

Coolant, often called antifreeze, keeps your engine at the right temperature and stops the water in the system from freezing. It also contains inhibitors that protect the radiator, water pump and engine from corrosion.

Those inhibitors wear out over time, even when the level looks fine. We drain the old coolant, refill with the correct type and mix for your engine, then check the system for leaks.

Coolant Change FAQs

Quick answers to the questions we’re asked most.

How often should coolant be changed?

Typically every two to five years, depending on the coolant type. Check your service schedule or ask us.

How much is a coolant change in Bedford?

£60 for most cars.

Can I just top up with water?

In an emergency, yes, but water dilutes the protection. A proper coolant change restores frost and corrosion protection.

Why is my engine overheating?

Low coolant, a leak, a faulty thermostat or a failing water pump are common causes. A diagnostic check will find it.
