Heating & Cooling Service at Menlo Park Chevron in Menlo Park
Heating & Cooling Service

Is your vehicle running hot? Overheating? Does the engine leak green fluid from the cooling system? Are the belts due for replacement? Are the hoses over 4 years old? Any of these conditions may indicate the need for service or repairs to your vehicle's engine cooling system.

At Menlo Park Chevron, we have certified technicians who will perform a professional inspection of the system, providing you with a complete analysis of the current conditions and the estimated cost of repair. Menlo Park Chevron is a full service repair facility.

Engine Cooling/Radiator Services

The engine cooling system is comprised of many different components that all must work correctly for the system to cool the engine properly. Any one component that fails can effect the entire system, consequently causing an engine overheating condition.

Cooling system failure is the number one reason for automotive breakdown on our nation's highways. Unlike a flat tire, you can't stop and put on a spare. A failure of the engine cooling system will mean a trip to the repair shop behind a tow truck, which is why it is important that you have periodic inspections and regular maintenance of the cooling system.

The key components of the cooling system we replace or repair are:

  • Radiator
  • Radiator cap
  • Radiator hoses
  • Radiator fan/fan clutch
  • Anti-freeze
  • Water pump
  • Thermostat
  • Fan belts
  • Serpentine belt
  • Cooling sensor
  • Heater core
  • Heater hoses

Most vehicle manufacturers recommend replacement of the anti-freeze every two years. Unlike many service shops that just perform a "drain-and-fill", Menlo Park Chevron provides a complete radiator flushing service that includes the following:

  • Inspect system and pressure test for leaks
  • Add flush chemicals to the radiator
  • Power flush system through flush machine
  • Refill system with proper amount of recycled anti-freeze
  • Add sealant/lubricant to the system
  • 6 month/6,000 mile warranty
