Question How do you bleed the cooling system on a MY02 WRX ?

As title above,please can anybody instruct me on how to.

Dealer fiited a new radiator under warranty and now I can hear gurgling coolant when revved from idle, idicating an air lock. It is coming from behind the dash so is probably the heater matrix, as it had been left on cold when they did the job.
Dealer said thay will need the car for a full day to look at it and I was wondering if it would be easy to do myself to save the hassle of leaving it with them.

Thanks

Stephen

No luck from the scoobynet crew so it looks like the dealer will have to sort it when it goes in for a clutch replacement under warrany (juddering)
More worryingly it has just started to pop out of first gear at crawling speed in car parks so that will have to be sorted as well.

Cheers for the BTT
