#10: Re: How to Bleed Engine Coolant Author: 206-GTi, Location: EssexPosted: Thu Apr 22, 2010 3:30 pm ---- 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).

How can you bleed it from the bottom of the radiator? You can drain it from there but bleeding needs to be done from the highest points!
On the GTi and I imagine other are the same there is a bleed screw on the thermostat housing and one on the heater hose where it goes through the bulkhead.
