Model: (Various brands) Various

Open the bonnet and prop it up with the support rod. Place a collection tray under the engine bay. Once you locate the coolant pipe, check if it has a tap; if so, simply turn it to start draining the fluid. If there is no tap, you will need to disconnect the pipe to break the circuit and let the coolant escape. Once all the fluid has drained, close the tap. Prepare about 3 litres of new coolant (this may vary depending on the car) and pour it in from the designated round container.
