Customer Guides

Getting your car radiator fixed is one of the most tedious tasks you have to deal with as a driver. Its role in your vehicle's cooling system makes it a vital component and must not be ignored if found faulty. At times, it is not the radiator that has a problem, but some other parts of the car's cooling system. To investigate if it's really a damaged Subaru Forester radiator that's causing the trouble, here are a few symptoms you can look for and what to do with them.

Rust in the radiator

If you notice rust forming on the radiator's exterior, then you can easily remove it with sandpaper or a stiff brush and some paint and varnish stripper. However, if the rust has built up inside the radiator, then simple repair tips would not solve the problem. The rust inside will eventually eat away your car's radiator and lead to breakdown.

What you can do is to flush the radiator with aftermarket flush solutions. Grab one that gives added protection against rust and foam so that you can extend the radiator's lifespan. Once completely flushed and clean, pour in the anti-freeze and distilled water. This should make your radiator as good as new.

Radiator leaks

Getting a radiator fixed is difficult as it is, more so if it is a leakage problem. Many factors can cause a radiator to leak, but the first thing you should do is to trace where the leakage has developed. Dry the radiator entirely to make it easier to find the source of the leak. Radiator spills usually come from either a small hole inside the radiator, or a leak from a hose or a joint. To prevent leakages, it's good to examine your radiator when you have time or at least once a week. Check your radiator's coolant level before going on long trips and bring with you at least a liter of distilled water for any road emergency that may happen.

Overheating engine

When your car overheats, the first thing that you normally inspect is the radiator. The overheating may be caused by empty or insufficient coolant level, damaged auxiliary fans, broken hoses, or worst, a busted radiator. To validate which part is causing the trouble, park your vehicle in a safe area and open the hood. Once the engine has already ventilated, look for the auxiliary fans to see if they're still working. Then, search for possible leaks in the coolant hoses. If there is no leak in the system, check the coolant level in the reservoir; be sure you don't open the engine radiator cap. Pour in water or coolant if needed. If the overheating persists, contact a mechanic or a service center nearest you.
