How do I know the color of my car’s antifreeze?Added different brands of antifreeze

Owners who want to determine the color of their vehicle's antifreeze can open the bonnet to check. When you see a colored water tank, you can determine the color of your vehicle's antifreeze. The colors of antifreeze are generally red, green, and blue. The color difference is mainly because the composition of antifreeze is different, and it is easy to observe whether there will be leakage problems. It can also be distinguished from other liquids to avoid the occurrence of mixed situation.

Added different brands of antifreeze

Adding antifreeze of different brands will cause chemical reaction due to different main components and additives of the two sides, resulting in precipitation or bubbles in the water tank where antifreeze is stored, resulting in loss of cooling system and rubber seals. In severe cases, impurities will be generated to block the cooling system pipes. After the cooling system pipeline is blocked, the antifreeze will not be able to play its effect normally, and the engine will not be able to dissipate heat in time, which will cause wear and tear.

If the vehicle's antifreeze is insufficient, the antifreeze fault light will light up on the instrument panel. When the fault light is on, it is necessary to add antifreeze in time. Car owners should not wait until the fault light is on before adding antifreeze. They can regularly check whether the antifreeze in the antifreeze backup tank is lacking, or whether there is a problem with the antifreeze. If the color of the antifreeze is wrong, the effect will not be good. Yes, it is necessary to replace the antifreeze in time.
