How the Cooling System Works
A “cooling system” may seem like a broad term, but it largely does what you’d expect from its name. This system works to keep your engine at a consistent temperature so it can work without threat of breakdown or overheating. Doing so allows the vehicle to prevent its parts from breaking down. It also works to regulate the interior heating system, and to lubricate the water pump. A cooling system includes the following:
- Evaporate
- Blower unit
- Cabin air filter
- Radiator
- Thermostat
- Water pump
How Often to Get Cooling System Service?
How often to get a cooling system depends on your vehicle, but is often recommended every 3-5 years. Make sure you consult your owner’s manual for any specific guidance on the recommended interval for your specific Kia. You can ensure that your cooling system always stays healthy, and prevent breakdowns, by checking on your coolant and being on the watch for abnormalities in said fluid that may need to be attended to before things get worse.
