When to Service Your 2024 BMW 430i Gran Coupe Cooling System

Not sure what a radiator does? That makes it difficult to know when to have your BMW 430i Gran Coupe radiator serviced, but it's still extremely important.

You guessed it – your engine overheats, and it may even break down completely.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 2024 BMW 430i Gran Coupe is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. BMW recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you see coolant leaks under your car, high engine temperatures, or a dashboard light that indicates low coolant. When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.
