I need to get my coolant changed, but don't know where to go. I'd like suggestions on a good, reliable place to get it done. I'm not worried about money. I just want a place that will do it right. Are any of the popular chains better than the others?

Hi Bob,

I'm not sure where you are located to provide this type of info. As far as chains, it seems like it is hit or miss. Many of these places are in need of employees and aren't getting quality qualified individuals.

The best thing to do is perform the service yourself. It isn't hard to do.

Your vehicle should have come with a coolant called Dexcool. Make sure the same thing is reused. You don't want to mix it with other types unless it is a universal coolant that indicates it can be mixed with Dexcool.

Here is a link that explains how to perform the procedure:

Let me know if this helps or if you have questions.

Take care,

Joe
