Hi lads!
I replaced the thermostat and some pipes, but I don't understand how to properly fill and bleed the cooling system. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Freelander 2 I just fill it up run it whilst watching for leaks. Then take it out for a few miles stopping half way to fill up if necessary. Occasionally I look at the level and check for leaks over the next few days.

Fill up then bleed at the heater. Check it a few time to make sure the level stays constant, topping up if needed.
