Thumbs up

If it's anything like an Impreza, you'll have a small drain screw on the bottom left of the radiator (looking from the front). Combine this with removing the lower radiator hose to the engine block and you'll find that 98.27% of the coolant should leave the system.

If it's nothing like an Impreza - you may not



Whoops, for some reason I read "bleed" as "empty"

Same as Pug.. has said.

No bleed as such. Just leave the cap off fire her up and wait till all the bubbles have sopped er bubbling

Wait until cold then add more coolant until happy with the levels.
Dont forget about the expansion tank near the batery.

Greasemonkey will now show me up by posting a complete guide to bleeding a Legacy making me sound like a complete nobber

Best Regs,
