Replacing the Antifreeze

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa C - Years 2000-2006
Part: Antifreeze coolant

In this video, you will replace the antifreeze in an Opel Corsa. First, open the bonnet and locate the coolant reservoir. Unscrew and open the lower valve of the reservoir, and using a rubber hose, drain and collect the old fluid in a disposal container. Next, unscrew and open the upper cap of the reservoir and pour in the new antifreeze until full. Start the car and turn the heating to maximum to circulate the fluid throughout the engine. As a final step, using a liquid soap dispenser, remove any excess antifreeze from the reservoir.
