Audi A3 Antifreeze & Additives

Antifreeze, also called coolant, is meant to sustain the overall temperature balance of the engine by removing excess heat and protect some other parts such as the throttle assembly from freezing. In modern automotive engines, coolant has to remove up to one-third of total heat energy produced while the engine is operating. Keeping a vehicle’s engine within a safe temperature range is vital because overheating can lead to various kinds of damage and even engine breakdown. A typical coolant consists of a mixture of such base fluids as ethylene glycol and water. Water provides excellent heat transfer, while ethylene glycol provides improved characteristics of coolant and frost resistance.

Apart from the base fluids, coolants also have certain amounts of other ingredients such as corrosion inhibitors, dyes, and antifoams. In high-performance applications, engines tend to generate tremendous amounts of heat. In such situations, you can use some extra additives to your antifreeze that will increase its initial properties. The problem of leaking coolant is not uncommon for Audi A3 owners. The reasons can vary, so first it's better to inspect the cooling system to find a leak. When you need to refill antifreeze, get high-quality Audi A3 antifreeze & additives in our store.
