Hello â€

These are usually at either of the lower corners of the radiator. Very hard to see at times. I have had to jack the front of the car up on some vehicles and there is a drain on the bottom and then right up from that has been the drain plug.

Use a very strong light and it should be at the lowest point. Some are twist out and some are screw out.

I have attached a pic but it doesn’t appear to show where the drain is. You also might consider going to the parts store and asking to look at a replacement radiator for your car and see where it is on that.

Last it is possible for the parts department at the dealership to have a better pic that what our manuals have.

Hello â€

Also, it looks like you may have some recalls on your vehicle. The dealer may fix these for free. Please contact the dealer service department, give them the VIN number of your car and have them check on these to see if they apply to you.
