Don't let your car sweat!

Without an effective cooling system, your car can quite literally boil over. This often-underestimated system plays a crucial role in maintaining the longevity and efficiency of your vehicle.

What is a Cooling System and How Does It Work?

Engine cooling systems help to keep your vehicle's engine temperature within an optimum range. Imagine this: your vehicle's engine burns fuel at a scorching temperature – if left uncontrolled, the heat can wreak havoc on the engine components. Enter, the cooling system.

Primarily composed of the radiator, thermostat, water pump, and coolant fluid, the cooling system acts as a heat diffuser. The water pump circulates coolant through the engine, absorbing excess heat, which is then dissipated by the radiator.

This constant circulation prevents overheating, maintaining the engine at a consistent operating temperature that ensures its long-lasting functionality.

Regular Checks - An Ounce of Prevention

At Mills-Thom's Mechanical Repairs, we emphasise the importance of regular cooling system checks to our clients. Unidentified leaks, inadequate coolant levels, or failing parts can swiftly transform into larger issues causing engine overheating or damage. Entrusting the health of your cooling system to trained mechanics not only safeguards your engine's performance but also avoids costly repair bills.

Warning Signs of a Faltering Cooling System

Be on the lookout for these telltale signs of cooling system troubles:

  • Rising engine temperature gauge reading.
  • Leakage of coolant fluid.
  • Odd smells from the engine area.
  • White smoke from the exhaust pipe.
  • Heater isn't working efficiently.
