2018 Honda Ridgeline Coolant in Murray, UT

These symptoms can indicate depleted coolant protection or a leak in the cooling system. A dropping level should be inspected rather than repeatedly topped off. The system is under pressure and hot after running, so checking it is done cold.

• Temperature gauge running higher than usual
• Sweet smell or puddle beneath the front of the vehicle
• Rusty, cloudy or low coolant in the reservoir

The refill uses the coolant type and concentration the manufacturer specifies for this vehicle. Pressure testing helps identify leaks, while the component inspection helps determine whether the vehicle needs maintenance or additional repair. Schedule an appointment at Larry H. Miller Honda Murray for a cooling-system evaluation.

• Drain and refill with manufacturer-specified coolant
• Cooling-system pressure test for leaks
• Inspection of hoses, cap, radiator and water pump area

For the 2018 Honda Ridgeline, the manufacturer’s schedule calls for flushing or replacing coolant every 120,000 miles. Coolant condition can also be tested during a service visit between those points. A pressure test can determine whether a leak, rather than normal maintenance, needs attention.

• Follow the manufacturer’s coolant schedule
• Have coolant condition tested between scheduled points
• Use pressure testing to check for leaks

Coolants are not interchangeable, so selecting fluid by appearance can create the wrong maintenance decision. Colour is not a reliable guide to what is in the bottle. Larry H. Miller Honda Murray can service the system using the manufacturer-specified coolant type and concentration.

• Use the manufacturer-specified coolant type
• Do not treat different coolants as interchangeable
• Do not use colour alone to identify coolant

A low reservoir can be a sign that the cooling system needs more than an adjustment. The system is under pressure and hot after running, so checking it is done cold rather than by opening it immediately after driving. Book an inspection to determine the condition of the coolant and the cause of any loss.

• Adding coolant does not renew additive protection
• A repeatedly low level points to a leak
• Have the system checked cold by a technician
