My dealership tells me it's time for a coolant flush. Apparently, it's recommended every 5 years; I've had my 2019 for nearly 6 now. Anyone else done this? it's $500.

I had it done at the time they replaced all the brakes and the transmission modulator. I didn't know what it cost but in 100,000 miles they've had virtually none of my repair bills because it didn't need any repair. For the little bit of work that they get on an EV
figure I threw them a bone
I don't recall having done this on any of my ice mobiles because it's been so long since I had and Ice mobile. The only time I even messed with the cooling systems was when I had to replace the thermostat.
If you cannot find it on Google go to your nearest library and look for an Edmonds car repair manual.

Looks to be pretty daunting job? Does one really need a vacuum device?

I wouldn't trust them with an EV. I just replaced my hubs and axles myself at 40k. I bought the synthetic fluid for a gearbox fluid change. Doesn't look hard once you get the belly pan off. Two drain plugs, a fill plug and a "Check fluid level" plug. There is a video on Weber Auto on the Bolt "transmission:" that points out the plugs and instructions for drain and filliing. As far as coolant goes, it's after the tranny fluid. It can't be that hard.
