Radiators

High-quality radiators are a necessary component for keeping the engine healthy and running smoothly. As the engine heats up and reaches its optimal running temperature, the radiator takes the role of keeping it at that point. The cooling system is made out of a water pump, radiator with a pressure cap, fan and fan belt, thermostat, temperature indicator, as well as hoses and pipes. These components need to be kept in good condition to ensure the longevity of your Lexus. Make sure to pay attention to the heat gauge on the dashboard as it can show the first signs of radiator issues. Small puddles of coolant under the vehicle or lower coolant levels are signs of pipe, hose or radiator leaks. A more serious issue is allowing your vehicle to overheat as a result of a faulty radiator, with possible permanent damage to the engine. If you've had a front collision, after the bumper and headlights, the radiator is usually the next thing to go. Ensure you check the condition of the radiator on a regular basis.
