Glanza pressurising radiator

[Loggy09]

i've just fitted a new radiator to my glanza, when hot top radiator hose feels under pressure and steam coming from radiator cap. heater working fine, temp gauge normal. any ideas why the pressure/ why the steam?? how to bleed properly? cheers

Sounds like you got air in the system. Leave the rap cap off, let it warm up, wait till the fan kicks in and the water will start bubbling over, then put the rad cap back on.

then once it has cooled down check the level in the rad and top that and the coolant reservoir up as necessary.
