The 4year anti freeze change.
Here’s a chance to save an easy £100 and guarantee that the antifreeze is changed and that the engine is properly flushed out!
Job takes about 3hrs on axel stands in a garage. Requires one £15 5litre bottle of top grade anti freeze, one £4 5litre container of distilled water. A clean 8litre bowl, cross head screwdriver, torques head screwdriver and 13mm spanner(see photo).
For this how to I will reference to a relevant section of the manual and add my own photo’s to better illustrate what to expect.
