Radiator Repair In Nelson, BC

What is a radiator?

Radiators are designed to keep your engine from overheating. The radiator is a heat exchanger that is commonly used in internal combustion engines. The system works by cooling the engine coolant as it passes through the radiator. The engine coolant heats up as it passes through the engine, but the engine never overheats due to the coolant getting cooled in the radiator. Therefore, the radiator is a vital component in your vehicle’s engine. By not getting it repaired or replaced, can cause serious problems with your engine. If your car is overheating, come to Downtown Automotive in Nelson where our technicians can deeply examine your radiator and remedy the issue.

Signs you need your radiator serviced:

Our technicians are knowledgeable in all things radiator repair and maintenance. It is important to bring your vehicle to us if you are experiencing any of the following to prevent further damage to your vehicle: 

  • The temperature gauge on your dashboard indicates your engine temperature to be higher than normal. Having higher than average temperature readings is a possible indicator that there is something wrong with your radiator. 
  • If you notice that your engine is overheating, usually indicated by steam coming out of the hood, then your radiator needs to get serviced. If there is steam coming out of your hood, this is a very clear sign that the cooling system needs to be repaired. 
  • If there is coolant leaking underneath your radiator, this is a sign that your radiator needs to get serviced as soon as possible. The coolant is typically a bright color.

Whether you're inquiring about your Honda, Subaru, Chevrolet, Nissan, or any other make, the more miles you put on your vehicle, the higher the risk of your radiator needing service increases. Even though your vehicle is designed to be reliable and prevent the engine from overheating, regular wear and tear or damage can cause the cooling system to unreliably keep the engine cool. Come to Downtown Automotive in Nelson if you are experiencing any of these symptoms with your vehicle.
