09 kia sedona drain plug location?
Does anyone know where that drain plug is for the radiator? I see something under there that is a white plastic nut that has a phillips head on it. I want to drain the coolant and then add more that is clean. also, do I have to turn on the engine when draining and re-filling?
thanks |

I wouldn't run the engine with the system drained. If you want to flush it pull the bottom hose and a radiator hose and flush until clean. |

Re: 09 kia sedona drain plug location?
Ok. I checked ebay but it doesnt really show where it goes in the diagram. So I think maybe its on the side. I'll check.
Also, how often should a radiator be changed or flushed? and how do I know what condition the radiator is in? what is the average life of a radiator? thanks. |

Re: 09 kia sedona drain plug location?
OK thanks. I went to the 2nd page and got a better diagram of its location. So, it is that plastic thing on the bottom with a phillips head on it that I originally thought. Thats really a strange looking drain cock. I don't know how Im going to loosen that without getting coolant all over my hand.
