Cooling system FAQs
Where is my cooling system and what is it?
Your cooling system is located in your car’s engine bay, typically at the front of your vehicle. It is designed to regulate your engine’s running temperature, prevent it from overheating and is made up of several parts that work together:
Radiator – Located behind the car’s front grill, your radiator dissipates heat from the coolant.
Coolant Reservoir (Overflow Tank) – A translucent plastic tank, usually near the radiator, where excess coolant is stored.
Water Pump – Usually attached to the engine block and driven by a belt that is responsible for circulating coolant through the system.
Thermostat – Normally between the engine and the radiator, your thermostat regulates the flow of coolant based on your engine’s internal temperature.
Radiator Hoses – Large rubber hoses connecting the radiator to the engine for coolant circulation.
Cooling Fans – Mounted on or near the radiator to help cool the coolant, especially when your car is stationary.
Regular maintenance, including timely coolant changes, inspecting hoses and belts for wear, and ensuring the radiator is free from obstructions, can help prevent cooling system problems.
Unsure about your car's service history?
Regular maintenance will extend the life of your car and save you money. Book a routine service or repair today and we’ll come to you at a time and place that suits your schedule. Every van is equipped to deal with a wide range of issues and all our work is backed by Lube Mobile's 12 month / 20,000km warranty.
How do I know I need to inspect my car’s cooling system?
Australia's hot weather climate places significant pressure on cooling systems, making regular maintenance essential to prevent overheating. Lube Mobile’s team of qualified mobile mechanics are able to perform a wide range of repairs on you car’s cooling systems.
Here are some symptoms to look out for:
- Temperature gage on the dashboard is high
- Engine is overheating
- Steam coming from the bonnet
- A musty/sweet smell coming from the car
- Engine coolant level is low
- Fuel efficiency has dropped
- You notice a coolant leak (bright coloured liquid) under your car
If you notice any of the above symptoms, book a routine service or repair today. We'll come to you, diagnose your car's problem and give you an itemised quote before we do any work.
How often should I check my coolant levels?
It's advisable to inspect coolant levels regularly, ideally every few weeks, and before long trips. Always check when the engine is cold to ensure accurate readings.
Regularly changing your car’s radiator coolant protects the cooling system from rust and scale deposits, which can reduce coolant circulation and lead to overheating.
While water can be used in emergencies, it's not recommended for long-term use. Coolant contains additives that prevent corrosion and raise the boiling point, offering better protection for your engine.
