This is something I struggle with too...whether or not
it is even necessary to change antifreeze every year!
My GM manual says 5 yrs or 150k miles.
My son's Audi says *don't* change it.

My Hyundai manual says 60k miles, but I've done that in less than 3 years.
For most people it is 5 or so. My LeSabre has the original at 9 years and
125k. The car is deteriorating in other areas, but not the cooling system.
It is also the last Buick I'll ever own.
Hi,
Our Honda and Subaru, every 3 years. For Honda I use Honda anti-freeze.
