Turbo changed - Coolant problem

Just had an adndy f turbo installed. Everything appears OK but when idling the temperature rises and there is no hot air from the vents. When the car is driving it is fine.

All advice welcomed.

yeah air lock, let it tick over with the cap off, keep it on warm and full blast. keep an eye on the temp & coolant levels it will sort it self.
