When Does My 1998 Suzuki X-90 Radiator Need Service?

If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Suzuki X-90 radiator serviced. Nonetheless, it’s vital to know what to look for. As part of your car’s cooling system, your radiator helps keep engine temperature regulated. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, the engine can overheat – or worse, break down.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 1998 Suzuki X-90 is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. To keep your radiator functioning, Suzuki recommends replacing your antifreeze or coolant at scheduled intervals but it’s a good idea to keep your eyes open for any indication that your radiator is failing.

When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.
