Radiator Repair &
Cooling System Service

Radiator repairs are vital for maintaining your vehicle’s cooling system and preventing engine overheating. When a car overheats, it may signal a failing radiator or coolant circulation issue. The radiator’s role is to transfer heat from the engine coolant to the outside air, keeping your engine within the safe operating temperature range.

If the radiator or its components fail, your engine can overheat, leading to expensive damage - including warped cylinder heads or gasket failure. Regular inspection and timely radiator servicing help protect your car from costly repairs and extend its engine life.

If your car shows signs of overheating, coolant leaks, or rust and corrosion on the radiator, it’s crucial to get it checked promptly. Even minor rust can compromise the core of the radiator over time. Our certified technicians at AutoResponse Stratton use advanced diagnostic tools to identify and fix issues before they escalate, ensuring reliable performance and peace of mind.

HERE ARE SOME OF THE SERVICES TYPICALLY PROVIDED FOR RADIATOR REPAIRS:

1. Radiator and Cooling System Service

   We conduct a complete inspection and maintenance of your radiator and cooling system, ensuring every component functions properly. This service helps maintain engine temperature, prevents coolant loss, and reduces the risk of overheating.

2. Coolant Flush

   Our coolant flush service in Stratton, WA, drains old coolant, removes built-up rust or debris, and refills your system with premium OEM-grade antifreeze. This preventive maintenance protects against corrosion and helps the radiator operate efficiently.

3. Pressure Testing

   We perform cooling system pressure testing to detect leaks or weak spots. By pressurising the system, our technicians can pinpoint issues before they cause significant coolant loss or engine damage.

4. Coolant Pump Replacement

   The coolant pump (water pump) circulates coolant between your radiator and engine. If it’s worn, noisy, or leaking, we replace it with high-quality parts to maintain steady coolant flow and avoid overheating.

5. Coolant Leak Detection and Repairs

   Leaks can arise from corrosion, road debris, or aged components. Our coolant leak detection and repair service identifies the source - whether it’s a hose, cap, or the radiator itself - and restores proper system sealing.

6. Cooling Hoses Replacement

   We inspect and replace cooling hoses that carry coolant through your system. Over time, hoses can become brittle, cracked, or swollen. Replacing them helps preserve the integrity of your cooling system and prevent leaks.

7. Radiator Cap Check

   The radiator cap maintains system pressure - an often-overlooked part of cooling maintenance. A weak or faulty cap can lead to leaks or overheating. We test and replace caps as part of your regular radiator service.

8. Radiator Replacement

   When a radiator becomes blocked, rusted, or cracked beyond repair, we provide radiator replacement in Stratton, WA. Our technicians fit high-quality units that restore optimal cooling performance and fuel efficiency.
