I have just had to replace the 12v auxiliary water pump but am struggling to find if there is any specific procedure for bleeding the coolant system afterwards.

I would be really grateful for some advice.

Many thanks in advance

Matt

you cant basically ,, with the coolant drained you need a vacuum filling tool , this creates a near perfect vacuum in the system removing just about all the air , Then the ready mixed coolant is drawn in filling all the cavities perfectly .. This is now a professionals job with the right tools .
