go to the other bleed nipples. if coolant runs though the, you should be ok. keep the cap off the rad to allow air to vent it's self out. with hot air coming though you heaters. leave over night and re check level. if done right you should not have an air lock.

so i would get away without opening this to bleed the system? is this right and has anyone done this before?

Mate if it's the one on the right looking down !!
use a flat ended screw driver to make the flat end bed in to plastic heat screw driver up wiv lighter
then unscrew saves money simple if the rad you got is ok good luck
