After all work is performed, the cooling system will be topped off with antifreeze before being pressure tested for optimal functionality.

In addition to having professional mechanics on staff, we also perform a high-quality BG Cooling System Flush with every exchange. Once the problem is located, an expert service recommendation will be made. To diagnose your cooling system issue, a Thompson Automotive ASE-certified technician will inspect your radiator, thermostat, water pump, antifreeze and all hoses and connections. A coolant pH that is too basic or too acidic means a flush and refill is in order, and a low coolant level will result in a steadily climbing engine temperature, even when the engine is idling. Another factor that may impact how well your cooling system works is the pH balance and level of coolant. These are indications of leaks, and leaking cooling systems are near guaranteed to fail unless the leaks can be corrected fairly quickly. You may also notice antifreeze leaking below your vehicle, or you may be hearing a hissing sound coming from your radiator. If your engine is ‘running hot’, it is highly recommended that the cooling system be inspected for leaks or other issues. Probably the most common symptom of a cooling system malfunction is a climbing thermostat reading. We can add refrigerant, check seals throughout the unit, make sure the evaporator coil isn’t freezing over, and ensure that the electrical components and blower fan motor are in tip-top shape. You should have your AC serviced every two years to ensure that it has plenty of refrigerant to operate efficiently, and its components are up to snuff. It’s a smart choice to keep an eye on the performance of your vehicle’s AC. Plus, as the seasons change, your AC is more likely to spring a leak, since its components are constantly expanding and contracting.
When winter comes, the defrost feature of your heater uses the same components, adding even more wear and tear throughout the year. During the hot, dry summers, your AC compressor and evaporator work overtime to ensure that you’re not sweating and panting during your afternoon commute.
