2004 V8 Vogue.


About to change it for a new one due to a split. Is it as simple as drain the tank, disconnect all pipes and electrical sensor plug, put new one in and refit pipes and fill it up. Will there be any airlocks? any tips Gone:

Done mine recently as well

As u said, i then use the coke bottle method to bleed out fill the expansion tank to the brim, take a 2ltr coke cottle take the left over ring piece from the lid off fill it just over 3quarters place it into the expansion tank neck run the car up and watch the system take air bottle in and out of the bottle and let it run up till up dont see loads of bottle movement put the cap on leave it for a while check the levels and then ur done

cheeers will give it a go. once the expansion tank is on and totally brim full, you fill the coke bottle three quarters and turn it up side down into the expansion tank, and start her up. Gone:

As you state, disconnect...replace, reconnect...

Open the Bleed screw, Fill tank....run engine, keep the tank topped up until you get a stream of constant water from the bleed screw.....tighten bleed screw....

Allow engine to cool and recheck coolant level!
