Sorry guys i have never changed coolant or done a coolant flush or a freezing point check although colour seems always bright and strong (12 years and 50000miles) just topped off when needed and never had a problem am i just lucky or what ?
Brake fluid was 1 changed 10 years ago but i always do a moisture check just to be on a safe side.
checked the service book no mention of flushing out every 5 years !!!
Might try and do the flush myself this summer
Ive started change oil and oil filters(from above with a pump last few years ) , spark plugs etc myself and she still running great and ive had her from day 1 -cheapest maintenace car ive ever had !!!!!
