Hi,
I recently had the coolant changed on my Catalunya and believe there is an airlock in the system, however this is the first car ive ever owned where i cant seem to find a bleed screw. Is there any way of doing it without draining the whole system again? Im no mechanic and as ive spent almost a grand on the car in the last couple of weeks i dont want another garage bill...
Thanks :-D

Ok, also forgot to mention that someone said to me you also need to add a conditioner or something once the coolant has been changed to protect the head gaskets, is that true?

1. There is NO known way to effectively bleed a scoob engine coolant system. The ONLY way is to drain and refill PROPERLY, so as to avoid the airlock. Do a search in my name, I've posted the "how to" so mnay times now.

2. No.

Ok cheers, im going to try the "burping" technique tomorrow, just wondered, the coolant is bound to go down as im doing this, should i add more as it goes down? Or will this create another airlock? As obviously th coolant will still be in the system as i burp it so will it rise back to where it was once the car is off? Or will it come out of the tank by the headlight whem burping and if so should i keep adding coolant? Any more help on this much appreciated!

I repeat, since you appear to have missed the first sentence.
