Coolant Change interval
I think we have that 100,000 mile coolant in our cars, but i want to change mine sooner than that. I have 30k on the car, think now is too soon? I don't want to over do it, but i want to keep the car in tip top shape. Thanks

That's the extreme, but corrosion builds up in your system, making less efficient. Your waterpump also uses the coolant as a lubricant, and old nasty coolant with abrasive particles from all the corrosion going on isn't exactly a prescription for long pump life. I change mine every year.
