How do I properly maintain the coolant levels in my Vauxhall Crossland?

I recently purchased a Vauxhall Crossland and want to make sure I'm taking proper care of the engine. How often should I check the coolant levels and what should I do if they are too low? Also, are there any specific types of coolant that I should use for my Crossland?

Hi Maria, congratulations on your new Vauxhall Crossland! It's important to regularly check your coolant levels to ensure proper engine function. I would recommend checking the levels every 3 months or every 3,000 miles. If the levels are too low, you can top it off with a 50/50 mix of coolant and distilled water. As for which coolant to use, it's best to consult your owner's manual or take it to a trusted Vauxhall mechanic for their recommendation. Hope this helps!

Hey Maria, make sure you are checking the coolant levels when the engine is cold and the car is on a level surface. If the levels are consistently low, there may be an underlying issue that needs to be addressed. As for the type of coolant, it's best to stick with the manufacturer's recommendation to avoid any potential issues. Good luck!

Hi Maria, I recommend investing in a coolant tester to make sure the mixture is always at the proper levels. And if you ever need to add more coolant, make sure to use the same brand and type that is currently in your car. Happy driving!
