determine cost. These include the make and model of your car, the type of refrigerant used, the presence or otherwise of additional leaks and whether or not extra repairs are required. \n\n\nA standard regas covers a system pressure check, a leak test, recovering old and refilling new refrigerant, plus a basic performance test. Possible extra costs might include further leak repairs, issues with your condenser or compressor and a new type of refrigerant. Even if you aren&#8217;t sure what&#8217;s wrong, once we&#8217;ve arrived at your location we will inspect your car&#8217;s aircon system and give you an itemised quote of the work required.

Its job is simple but essential: keep the engine at the correct operating temperature and prevent overheating. Knowing what\u2019s inside a radiator and how it works makes it easier to spot cooling system problems early.\n \n\nWhat\u2019s Inside a Radiator?\n \n\nCoolant (Antifreeze + Water Mix)\nThe coolant circulates through the radiator and engine. It absorbs heat from the engine and releases it through the radiator\u2019s cooling fins.\n \n\nTubes and Cooling\nFins Hot coolant flows through thin metal tubes. Attached fins increase surface area, helping heat escape quickly as air passes over them.\n \n\nPlastic or Metal Tanks \nLocated on the sides or top\/bottom of the radiator, these tanks hold coolant as it enters and exits the radiator core.\n \n\nPressure Cap \nThe radiator cap keeps the cooling system pressurised, allowing coolant to operate at higher temperatures without boiling. \n\nBuilt\u2011In Transmission Cooler (Some Vehicles) \nMany automatic cars include a small heat exchanger inside the radiator to help cool transmission fluid. \n\nHow Does a Radiator Work?\n\n1. Coolant Absorbs Engine Heat As the engine runs, coolant moves through the engine block, picking up heat.\n \n\n2. Hot Coolant Enters the Radiator The water pump pushes heated coolant into the radiator\u2019s narrow tubes.\n \n\n3. Airflow Removes Heat Airflow\u2014either from driving or the electric cooling fan\u2014passes over the fins, pulling heat away from the coolant.\n \n\n4. Cooled Coolant Returns to the Engine Once cooled, the coolant flows back into the engine to repeat the cycle.\n \n\n5. Thermostat Regulates Temperature The thermostat opens and closes to maintain the engine\u2019s ideal operating temperature.\n \n\nNeed Help With Your Cooling System?\n\nIf your car is overheating, losing coolant, or running hotter than normal, Lube Mobile\u2019s mobile mechanics can diagnose and repair cooling system issues at your home or workplace, saving you the hassle of a workshop visit.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-accordion-item-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"wpr-acc-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-acc-item-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-title-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-acc-title-text\">How often should I check my coolant levels?<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-toggle-icon wpr-ti-close\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-down\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M31.3 192h257.3c17.8 0 26.7 21.5 14.1 34.1L174.1 354.8c-7.8 7.8-20.5 7.8-28.3 0L17.2 226.1C4.6 213.5 13.5 192 31.3 192z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-toggle-icon wpr-ti-open\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-acc-panel\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-acc-panel-content\">It's advisable to inspect coolant levels regularly, ideally every few weeks, and before long trips. Always check when the engine is cold to ensure accurate readings.\n \n\nRegularly changing your car\u2019s radiator coolant protects the cooling system from rust and scale deposits, which can reduce coolant circulation and lead to overheating.\n \n\nWhile water can be used in emergencies, it's not recommended for long-term use. Coolant contains additives that prevent corrosion and raise the boiling point, offering better protection for your engine.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-accordion-item-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"wpr-acc-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-acc-item-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-title-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-acc-title-text\">What coolant is best for my car?<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-toggle-icon wpr-ti-close\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-down\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M31.3 192h257.3c17.8 0 26.7 21.5 14.1 34.1L174.1 354.8c-7.8 7.8-20.5 7.8-28.3 0L17.2 226.1C4.6 213.5 13.5 192 31.3 192z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-toggle-icon wpr-ti-open\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-acc-panel\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-acc-panel-content\">The best coolant for your car depends on the vehicle\u2019s make, model, and cooling system design.

If you\u2019re unsure what\u2019s currently in your system, a full coolant flush is recommended before adding new coolant.\n\n\n4. Consider Your Driving Conditions\n\nHot climates, towing, heavy loads, and stop\u2011start city driving all increase engine heat.
