When do you recomend to flush and refill? Now?. Hanes says every 5 years or 100,000 miles whichever comes first. The last time the shop did it for me was little more than 3 years ago. The mileage was around 75,000 miles.

as long as the coolant looks good, you are fine, take your cap off and look at the color, it should be bright orange (assuming they put dexcool in it)Camaro99\'3.8, original spoil package (no body mods...PROUDLY), K&N, Lid 3800II, SLP CAI, Flowmaster, Z28Chrome Tips, 180* Thermostat.

Flush that DexCrap out...go with the Green stuff.
After many failed attempts to keep DexCrap from sludging...even after 3 back flushes and even professional flushes, I said to hell with it and ran regular green-glycol coolant...no problems, but 30K flushes are needed.
