How to Replace the Radiator Fluid in a Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Antifreeze coolant

Open and lift the bonnet. Now go underneath the car and observe the hoses connected to the radiator. You will notice the wider hose that will allow you to drain the old fluid by loosening and removing the tie that holds it. Collect the old fluid in a container placed underneath, which will then be disposed of properly. An important observation to follow is to add the new coolant to the radiator and bleed any excess air from the valve located behind the engine on the inner wall of the bonnet.
