What's Included in Our Cooling System Repair Service
Performed by ASE-certified technicians at our Newark shop
Overheating Diagnosis
We trace exactly why the engine runs hot — thermostat, water pump, radiator, or a hidden leak — before quoting any repair.
Coolant Flush & Fill
Old, worn-out antifreeze drained and refilled with the correct type for your vehicle and cold NJ winters.
Radiator Repair & Replacement
Clogged, cracked, or leaking radiators repaired or replaced to restore proper heat transfer.
Water Pump Replacement
A failing pump can't circulate coolant — we replace it, often alongside the timing belt when the jobs overlap.
Thermostat & Hose Service
Stuck thermostats and brittle, cracked hoses swapped out before they leave you stranded on the shoulder.
Heater Core Service
Weak heat or a sweet smell inside the cabin traced to a leaking heater core and fixed right.

Cooling System Repair FAQs — Newark, NJ
Straight answers from our Newark technicians
A coolant flush usually runs $100–$180, while thermostat, hose, or water pump work ranges from about $200–$700 depending on the part and labor involved. We provide a free written estimate before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
Overheating usually comes down to low coolant from a leak, a stuck thermostat, a failing water pump, a clogged radiator, or a bad cooling fan. We diagnose the actual cause instead of just topping off coolant, because untreated overheating can warp your cylinder head or blow the head gasket.
No. Keep driving a hot engine and you risk warping the head or blowing the head gasket, turning a small repair into a major one. If your gauge is in the red, pull over safely, let it cool down, and have it towed to our Newark shop.
Most vehicles need a coolant flush every 30,000–60,000 miles, though it varies by make and coolant type. Old antifreeze loses its corrosion protection, so we check its condition during any service and tell you honestly whether it can wait.
Often, yes — a thermostat, hose, or coolant leak can usually be handled the same day, while a water pump or radiator replacement may take longer. Our ASE-certified technicians serve drivers across Newark, Elizabeth, Hillside, Irvington, and Union, and we give you a clear timeline with your free estimate.
