How much does Replacing engine coolant cost?
The cost of a coolant or antifreeze change will depend on the type and size of your vehicle. On average you can expect to pay between $100 and $200 for a standard coolant change.
Is Replacing engine coolant necessary?
So why should I change it? Answer: The appearance of engine coolant (commonly called anti-freeze) has very little to do with its condition or the need to replace it. Replacing the engine coolant should be a part of all regularly scheduled maintenance programs as recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer.
Please respond to my effort to provide you with the best possible solution by using the "Acceptable Solution" and/or the "Helpful" buttons when the answer has proven to be helpful.
