The cooling system of a car works by circulating coolant or antifreeze through the engine to absorb the excess heat produced during combustion. The coolant then flows through the radiator, where it is cooled by the airflow passing through the fins of the radiator. The now-cooled coolant then returns to the engine to absorb heat once again.

The cooling system is made up of various components, including the radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses, and belts. The water pump is responsible for pumping the coolant through the engine and radiator, while the thermostat helps regulate the engine’s temperature.

If the cooling system is not working properly, it can lead to the overheating of the engine, which can cause serious damage. Common reasons for a cooling system malfunction include a leak in the system, a faulty thermostat, or a malfunctioning water pump. Regular maintenance and inspections of the cooling system can help prevent these issues and ensure that the car operates efficiently and safely.
