Default how to change coolant(sticky?)

ok peeps after several pm here you go

ok bleed niples are located here


first of all drain coolant complete you will need to disconnect the bottom hose on the bottom of the rad here


and reconnect it

then you will need a bleed bottle i heard of a coke bottle being used ect but get 1 from citroen it will be easyer there less than £20 makes life easyer

ok you need 3l bottles of coolant pore in just over 2L of coolant
undo all 3 nipples(in order of pictures) (this is a vts but all saxos are located in the same place




and now top up with water wait till the nipples start to leak with a nice stream of blue liquid and do them up nice and tight



now start up engine allow to idle for 1-2 mins then raise the revs to 1000-1500 rpm

wait for the cooling fan to kick in then return rpm to idle and allow the fan to kick in once again remove bleed bottle and give the car a good run

return and check the level all ok sorted


remember if this helps set me up a rep guys and girls cheer steve


ps ill try and get a pic of a bleed bottle
