    Bought a 2024 Trax, oil change input appreciated.

    I bought a new 2024 Trax a couple weeks ago, really the first new car we've ever purchased. I've always changed my own oil, but I've never had a factory warranty. The first oil change is covered.

    Periodically draining and filling overflow tank

    Is it worth it to replace the coolant in the overflow tank on a regular basis? I've heard of people doing this often rather than radiator drain and fills on longer intervals. Does all the coolant in the overflow tank get regularly circulated throughout the system?
