Cooling System Maintenance

1 / How often should I flush my radiator in Miami, FL?

Due to Miami’s hot and humid climate, it’s recommended to flush your radiator every 30,000 to 50,000 miles or every two to three years—whichever comes first. Frequent stop-and-go driving and high temperatures can cause coolant to break down faster, making routine radiator maintenance essential to prevent overheating.

2 / What type of coolant is best for Miami’s heat?

For Miami’s year-round warm weather, choose a long-life, ethylene glycol-based coolant or extended-life antifreeze that provides strong protection against corrosion and high-temperature boiling. Brands labeled “universal” or “compatible with all makes and models” are ideal for most modern vehicles. Always check your owner’s manual or ask our team at AAA Million Auto Parts for the best match for your car.

3 / Why is my car overheating even if it has coolant?

If your car is overheating despite having coolant, the issue could be a faulty thermostat, water pump, or radiator fan. It could also indicate air trapped in the cooling system or a clogged radiator. Have your cooling system inspected right away to avoid engine damage.

4 / Can I drive with a coolant leak?

Driving with a coolant leak is not recommended. Even a small leak can lead to rapid coolant loss, engine overheating, and severe engine damage. If you spot puddles of green, orange, or pink fluid under your vehicle, it’s best to top off the coolant (if safe) and visit a professional for leak repair immediately.
