I got in an accident a couple weeks ago and nothing seems to be wrong with my engine exept my radiator seems lower than usual. i checked it out and i saw coolant at the bottom of the driver's side of the radiator. what should do?
Another question: how do drain my coolant?
THanX a lot

 

Are you checking your fuild levels? See if there are puddles or if your coolant levels are going down. If you are leaking, you can always have it rebuilt. If it is stock, get a new one. Spend a little more money and get one that will last. I had a stock radiator on my teg and it went to crap without going through an accident.

One thing to check though - see if the radiator comes with a tranny cooler too. If not, you might want to get one on the side.

On the bottom of the radiator is a screw-in plug which you remove and let the coolant drain out, also remove the hose that goes from the radiator to the engine and crank the engine once or twice (disable the ECU first so as the engine doesnt start) to flush out any coolant still in the engine
