• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Coolant problem

My '08 GS started leaking thru the overflow tube. Replaced the thermostat, flushed and filled with Engine Ice. Same problem. Other insights pointed to an air bubble. Any help on the best way to "burp" the system?
 
Shop manual says

Refill system and run until thermostat opens, without cap. Let cool, top off put cap on. Done. I just did mine last week. Make sure the cap rotates to the second stop, or it will vomit coolant. That might be what's going on with it.

Coz has you covered.
It seems to bleed air easier with the cap off so the system doesn't build up pressure to early. I also have a habit of squeezing/priming the hoses as its running to help. Don't know if it makes any difference but that's the way I have always done it.
