Why
Change Your Own Antifreeze
Why should you get your
hands dirty?
First off,
cooling system failure is the #1 cause of engine-related
breakdowns. While many people check oil levels and brakes on a
regular basis, few consistently monitor the cooling system. Did
you know that a car's engine produces enough heat to destroy
itself?! That's why we recommend checking antifreeze levels as
part of your normal maintenance routine. Flushing the radiator
at least every 2 years and topping off with PEAK Antifreeze will
ensure that your engine continues to operate within the correct
temperature range. PEAK Extended Life antifreeze provides 5
years or 150,000 mile protection for maximum use.
