changing the coolant

I have an 07 nb with the 4.8. Has anyone had to flush out there cooling system yet? I was looking for a drain cock on the radiator and didnt see one. I see on the drivers side where one should have been but there is a factory plug in that spot. I want to change out the dexcool before i have problems with it as im coming up out of my warranty. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: changing the coolant

Does the factory plug look like it is removable ? If not, I would remove the lower hose to the radiator and let it drain out. Also on my block there is a plug on the sides of the block to drain the engine. Mine is not a 2007 though, so I really cant say where it may be. I'm sure someone else will chime in.
