Radiator Care
Always ensure radiator coolant level is correct, in newer cars this is as easy as looking through the plastic reservoir wall to check the fill lines are covered. Coolant can be added via the reservoir (when cold) if required.
For vehicles without a reservoir, remove the radiator cap and check coolant level while the engine is cold. Also check if coolant looks rusty, or has things floating in it - if it does, the system needs flushing and new coolant. If it has a sludgy oily surface get your mechanic to check for the reason.
While checking the radiator, ensure that the hoses are not leaking, cracked, bulging or squishy. If they are, they will need to be replaced.
What to do if your car overheats
If your radiator overheats, pull over and raise bonnet to assist cooling. Do not remove radiator cap or add cold liquid. Allow time for the radiator to cool down, liquid should only be added to the radiator when it is cool. Apart from the danger of being burnt by the radiator, removing the cap when hot will cause hot liquid and steam to surge upwards as the pressure in the system is released. Adding cold liquid to a hot radiator can also crack the engine block. If you must add liquid while it is still a little warm have the engine running to mix the cooler liquid as it is added and add slowly.
Causes of Early Radiator Failures
-
Corrosion - Internal & External
-
Erosion - Internal & External
-
Stray Current - Electrolysis

Mechanical Damage
Chemical corrosion is often due to incorrect coolant use. Corrosive atmospheres, road grime and stray current in the cooling system are all potential problems. Qualified Auto Electricians and Radiator Repair Specialists use a voltmeter and a specific procedure to test for stray current.
Mechanical failure includes tanks splitting and separation of fin to tube bonding. It is often caused by excess pressure in the system, possibly from a blown head gasket or even a radiator cap. A faulty swollen radiator cap or incorrect one can prevent pressure release with severe consequences. Alternatively, poor radiator cap sealing can lead to the loss of coolant, loss of system ability to draw coolant back from the overflow reservoir and to boiling of the coolant under severe operating conditions.
If you suspect you have a problem - take you car to a qualified mechanic who will best advise you on the way forward.
