Volkswagen Radiator Service

Radiator Service in Indianapolis, IN

Our certified technicians at Tom Wood Volkswagen have extensive training and the hands-on experience necessary to qualify them as Volkswagen radiator service experts. When it comes to radiator service, we understand all of the complexities of the engine cooling system and have a professional knowledge of the Volkswagen radiator's factory specifications. If the radiator requires replacement then we will only install an original equipment radiator. When it comes to coolant fluid, we only install factory authorized Volkswagen coolant/antifreeze.

Warning Signs of a Defective Radiator

• Leaking fluid
• Coolant fluid requires repeated topping off

• Engine overheats

Radiator Service & Coolant Fluid Exchange 

Radiator service includes coolant fluid exchange whereby the old coolant is removed and replaced with factory authorized Volkswagen coolant/antifreeze from our parts department. Service also features a comprehensive inspection of the engine cooling system including the water pump, thermostat, and hoses. 

Radiator Replacement

When we find that a radiator has damages allowing coolant to leak or contaminate, it will require replacement to restore reliable performance to the engine cooling system. A certified technician will remove the old coolant from the engine, inspect the engine cooling system including all of its components thoroughly, and then a genuine Volkswagen OEM radiator from our parts department.

The Volkswagen Engine Cooling System & Radiator Service 

All Volkswagen car and SUV models with an internal combustion engine have an engine cooling system with a radiator. The radiator assists the engine cooling system in keeping the engine operating at a specified temperature that protects internal components, enhances fuel efficiency, and extends service life. If the radiator gets damaged, the coolant can leak and the engine can overheat. If your Volkswagen has been experiencing any of the warning signs of a radiator problem, we recommend a radiator inspection with replacement as needed to fix radiator damages. Give us a call to schedule service if you are experiencing any issues with your Volkswagen radiator.
