It's a fluid most drivers only hear about when changing the oil, but few understand its true importance. In fact, coolant can \"save\" your car's engine. Therefore, thoroughly understanding coolant\u2014its function, types of coolant, and how to choose the right product for your vehicle\u2014is extremely necessary.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4697\" src=\"https:\/\/blueone.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Nuoc-mat-xe-o-to-BlueOne-Coolant.jpg\" alt=\"Distinguishing and Choosing the Right Coolant for Your Engine\" width=\"1170\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blueone.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Nuoc-mat-xe-o-to-BlueOne-Coolant.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.blueone.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Nuoc-mat-xe-o-to-BlueOne-Coolant-800x342.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.blueone.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Nuoc-mat-xe-o-to-BlueOne-Coolant-768x328.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.blueone.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Nuoc-mat-xe-o-to-BlueOne-Coolant-18x8.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.blueone.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Nuoc-mat-xe-o-to-BlueOne-Coolant-600x256.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The main function of coolant:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lower the freezing point.<\/strong> of the cooling system in winter, which helps prevent the engine from freezing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Increase boiling point<\/strong> in the summer, it helps the engine avoid overheating.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Protect the cooling system and engine<\/strong> free from rust, corrosion, and impurities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Types of coolants<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In the past, most cars used similar materials for their cooling systems (such as brass, rubber, and cast iron), so the coolant formula was fairly standardized.
