Rocknrollnutts Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Hey guys, I'm James, this is me breaking my forum virginity, so here it goes. I recently purchased a brand new set of silicon hoses (coolant, auxiliary and turbo) from roose Motorsport and only noticed this morning a couple of days prior to fitting that the new top rad hose is without a bleed screw. No hole or valve for one to fit. I contacted their technical department and typically the head technician is abroad on his holiday. I asked if there was a way to bleed the coolant system of air when I fit them and all they said was that in a previous conversation that the heater mattix was mentioned. I've looked around and can't find a thing. Any help would be brilliant. Many thanks. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 What engine James? I'm presuming its a TD5 if you were expecting a bleed screw in that top hose. Cracking the feed to the heater matrix off is what a lot of us with Tdi engines will do to get the air out. In my opinion though, its useful on the TD5 to have that screw in the top hose.
