How do you guys feel about a radiator flush in genetal? 180k miles corolla 2013. No particular symptoms. I did a few drain and fulls already the past 30k miles, coolant was pretty dirty and dark at 150k miles. Asking because I need to change my water pump and since I'll lose some coolant on that I figure I'll do a flush at the same time if U have to.

If you were on the original coolant at 13 years and 180k miles, a coolant flush may be worthwhile; but since you’ve already been changing it I think another drain and fill is going to be fine.
doing a coolant flush after replacing a faulty part that was directly connected to coolant hoses is a good idea if there is a possibility of debris (metal, plastic, dirt, etc,.)
Congrats, you just reached level 3!
Do it if you see something nasty in the coolant
