I did mine today by removing header tank cap and squeezing the rad hoses top and bottom to force air through, you will see the water bubble as air is released. Then top up with coolant and run with heater full on, I had to do it 3 times before it resolved my problem with overheating... but I'm no expert, this is what worked for me..
