Why is the coolant light on my Chevrolet dashboard on?

Can Chevrolet Astro radiators be cleaned?

To keep your Chevrolet Astro radiator running well, it’s wise to get it cleaned out a few times a year.

My Astro radiator sounds like it's rumbling or boiling! What's up?

If your radiator sounds like it's boiling or rumbling, you could have air pockets in the cooling system of your Astro. You might also have a damaged radiator cap (super easy to fix!) or a clogged radiator.

There’s rust in my Astro radiator. Should I be worried?

Yes. Having rust in your Chevrolet Astro radiator can cause leaks, a reduction in cooling efficiency, and even radiator failure.

To help prevent rust from becoming a major issue, it's important to properly maintain your radiator system.

When to Service Your 1995 Chevrolet Astro Cooling System

Not sure what a radiator does? That makes it difficult to know when to have your Chevrolet Astro radiator serviced, but you need to know the signs of radiator malfunction. Your radiator is part of the cooling system. It helps regulate engine temperature. When the radiator isn't working properly, your engine can overheat and potentially break down.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 1995 Chevrolet Astro is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. Chevrolet recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but it’s a good idea to keep your eyes open for any indication that your radiator is failing. Your radiator could be close to causing an engine breakdown if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light. When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.

Chevrolet Astro Coolant Fluid Exchange

What happens during a radiator repair service? At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start by performing a thorough inspection of your Chevrolet Astro cooling system. We’ll do a machine-powered coolant exchange on the system, and then we’ll top off or replace the fluids that were removed (like chemicals, lubricants, and sealants). Lastly, we’ll perform a pressure check to look for leaks.

Radiator problems often go hand in hand with water pump problems. The water pump is one part on your 1995 Chevrolet Astro engine that you can't put off repairing or replacing. The role of the water pump is to keep coolant circulating in your engine, radiator, and hoses. Without it, your engine won't maintain its optimal temperature. Let our technicians examine your radiator pumps and hoses to ensure everything is operating as it should. From the heater core to the radiator cap, your 1995 Chevrolet Astro is in good hands at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Every job we do is backed by our Triple Promise: Fixed Right, Priced Right, Right on Time.
