VW Coolant Fluid Exchange

The Reason Coolant Fluid Needs Exchanging

Coolant fluid is composed of two parts, the antifreeze, and the coolant. The antifreeze makes sure the coolant doesn’t freeze over in cold weather, and the coolant is what takes the heat from the engine and keeps the cooling system protected from corrosion. The coolant fluid can boil off, get contaminated, and degrade over time, making your cooling system work less optimally. That’s why it’s good to change coolant fluid regularly and make sure your coolant fluid is at optimal levels.

When to Change Your Coolant Fluid

Different manufacturers have different standards on when to change your coolant fluid. For your Volkswagen, it’s recommended that the coolant fluid be exchanged every 30,000 miles or every two years. You can also learn when it’s time to get a coolant fluid exchange with a coolant fluid check, where an expert determines from a visual inspection if your coolant needs to be changed or not.
