How do I bleed a peugeot 206 (54 plate) engine coolant, I want to remove all the coolant and top it up with new fluid.

Thanks

There is a tap at the bottom of the radiator. You can bleed it all from there.

Adding new coolant is a different story. of course you want to pour it in the resovor. Just make sure you bleed all air out of the system.

I used a Milkshake bottle with the bottom cut off fixed to the resovor to put the new stuff in. Will need to run the car and get the fan to kick in twice. You will notice the coolant in the bottle (milkshake in my case) suddenly disapear after the fan kicks in (Thermostat opens and allows it to run through I belive).
