    Engine Coolant

    I've never changed it in an SUV before, only a small car. I followed a Haynes service manual which had me drain the radiator and coolent bottle, remove the radiator cap, insert a garden hose, and flush out everything. Then do the reverse and add coolent.

    New Brake Pad Review

    04XLT4x4, The problem is Koons is "eating" the cost of the replacement, something they wouldn't do if I didn't purchase the vehicle from them. I purchased mine from Carlton Massey in Pocomoke City...so I have to see if they will do it.
