Your INFINITI's engine runs at temperatures that would destroy it without a properly maintained cooling system. The coolant — a precision blend of antifreeze and water — transfers heat away from the engine, protects against freezing in Ohio winters, prevents boiling on summer highways, and inhibits internal corrosion throughout the cooling circuit. Over time, the organic acid corrosion inhibitors in coolant deplete, and the fluid becomes acidic — actively corroding the aluminum components it was designed to protect.
INFINITI of Beachwood performs certified coolant fluid exchanges using INFINITI Long Life Antifreeze — the OAT-formula coolant specifically engineered for INFINITI's aluminum engine components, not generic green antifreeze that can accelerate corrosion. We serve Cleveland, Mentor, Solon, and all of Northeast Ohio. Schedule your coolant service appointment today.
Complete coolant exchange and cooling system inspection — replacing depleted fluid with OEM-specification antifreeze and checking every component that keeps your engine at the right temperature.
We drain the entire cooling system — including the heater core and overflow reservoir — and refill with fresh INFINITI Long Life Antifreeze at the correct 50/50 concentration. A complete flush removes degraded inhibitors and contaminants that a simple drain-and-fill leaves behind in the heater core and passages.
We test coolant freeze protection using a refractometer — measuring the actual protection point of your current mixture. In Ohio, adequate freeze protection to at least -34°F is essential. We report the exact result before any service.
A pressure test identifies slow external leaks that may not be visible at rest. Pressurizing the system to its rated cap pressure reveals weeping hose connections, minor radiator seeps, and failing water pump seals before they become complete failures.
During every coolant service, we inspect the radiator, upper and lower hoses, thermostat housing, water pump, and cooling fans for leaks, cracking, and wear. Catching a failing lower radiator hose during a scheduled service is far less expensive than a roadside breakdown.
INFINITI engines use aluminum blocks, heads, and water pump housings. Generic green antifreeze uses silicate-based inhibitors that are incompatible with INFINITI's OAT (Organic Acid Technology) coolant specification — silicates can accelerate corrosion of aluminum components in INFINITI's cooling system, the opposite of their intended function.
Mixing coolant types — or using generic antifreeze as a top-up in an OAT system — can cause inhibitor package reactions that form deposits and reduce heat transfer efficiency. INFINITI of Beachwood uses only INFINITI Long Life Antifreeze on every coolant service. It's the same specification the factory fills your engine with — and it's not a compromise we make for convenience or cost.
A coolant flush typically takes 1–2 hours. Our business workstations, Wi-Fi, fresh coffee, and comfortable waiting lounge make it easy to stay productive. Complimentary loaner vehicles are also available if needed.
INFINITI recommends a coolant exchange every 30,000 miles or 2 years under normal conditions, with more frequent service in severe conditions. Beyond the scheduled interval, these symptoms indicate the cooling system needs immediate attention.
Northeast Ohio's temperature extremes — from subzero winter lows to 90°F summer highs — make adequate coolant maintenance especially important. A cooling system that works acceptably in mild weather may overheat in summer or suffer freeze damage in winter if inhibitors are depleted.

Answers to the questions we hear most often from INFINITI owners across Northeast Ohio.
INFINITI recommends a coolant exchange every 30,000 miles or 2 years. On OAT coolant systems, some owners extend to 5 years or 50,000 miles if the coolant tests adequate inhibitor strength. The safest approach is to test freeze protection and inhibitor condition at each oil change and exchange when testing indicates depletion.
INFINITI vehicles require OAT (Organic Acid Technology) coolant meeting INFINITI's Long Life specification. Do not use generic green conventional antifreeze or HOAT coolant — these contain silicates that are incompatible with INFINITI's aluminum components. We use only OEM-specification fluid.
A drain-and-fill removes only the coolant that gravity drains — leaving 20–30% of old fluid in the heater core, water pump, and passages. A complete flush circulates fresh coolant and cleaner through the entire system, removing all degraded fluid and deposits. We always perform a complete flush.
No. Mixing OAT and conventional (silicate) coolants causes inhibitor package reactions that can form gelatinous deposits clogging cooling passages. If you're uncertain what's in your system, a complete flush and refill with fresh OEM-spec fluid is the correct and safest approach.
Brown coolant indicates depleted corrosion inhibitors and active internal rust and scale formation. The system needs an immediate flush — and inspection for any damage already caused. Continued operation with degraded coolant accelerates water pump bearing wear and can clog heater core passages.
Yes. Coolant service typically takes 1–2 hours. Complimentary loaners are available, as is home and office pickup and delivery.
Same-day and express tire appointments often available. Our certified team is ready.
