Antifreeze and coolant are the same thing.


Is antifreeze the same a radiator fluid?

Not quite. Anti-freeze is the undiluted liquid that you mix with water (usually 50:50). The proper term for the mixture is "Coolant". I would say that "coolant" and "radiator fluid" are synonymous.


Is there a difference between coolant and antifreeze?

In general, a coolant is any liquid that will keep your car from overheating. While, antifreeze is a liquid coolant that is formulated to withstand sub freezing temperatures without freezing to a solid state.same thing but different name,but i guess coolant is to keep your engine cool and the antifreeze also does the same plus it keeps your engine safe from frezing as well.

Can you add antifreeze to a car without flushing radiator?

Yes, you can add antifreeze / coolant to a car without flushing the radiator. It's best to use the same type that's already in your car / truck - conventional or long-life. Antifreeze / Coolant comes in 'Full Strength' which needs to be mixed with distilled water (usually 50/50 for mild weather regions, and more antifreeze 70/30 for really cold weather regions.) Also available is pre-mixed 50/50 antifreeze. PEAK Antifreeze & Coolant protects from -84 degrees to 276 degrees Fahrenheit when mixed 70/30. If it's been 2-3 years since a flush & fill for conventional antifreeze / radiator fluid, or 5 years for 'long life' antifreeze, it's likely time for a flush & fill.
