Almost every car is the same. There will be a valve on the bottom of your radiator, if not (rare) you will have to take the bottom hose off. It is almost impossible to get all the old water out of an engine, so some people use a flush kit to run water through the system to get it clean. Then you will want to refill with a 50/50 water antifreeze solution. You have to keep in mind that if you flushed it with water then there will be a certain amount of water already in it. Thus add more antifreeze than water to make up for this. Also it is best to refill with distilled water to avoid any minerals that may be in your water supply. Make sure there are no air locks and top up after running the vehicle and allowing it to cool down.

ever do this on any engine?
seems not.... or you'd have asked for tips, not how.
so why not watch 1000s do it on youtube first
then ask questions?
the engine is F9Q by F Renault engine DIESEL.
this usa forum fixya has no such engine, so no tricks to tell,. here.
like all water cooled engines
drain it
flush it (dont let dogs drink it or they die, and it tastes good to em.)
fill it
burp it
test for no leaks
test for no air pockets in system.
drive.
Same as a P51 Mustang.... only different.
what we do, to avoid domestic, eco damage is drive
to the shop and say ,full flush fill cooling system
and make it snappy!
and the attach a machine to that that prevents the toxic spill.
