As above, where is the coolant bleed valve on an NA? Just had my heater box out (more on that later...the joy) and now it will obviously need topped up and bled!
Thanks!

The bleed nipple for the rad is located on the pax side of the rad. It's easily got to if you remove the pax light. There is probably another bleed point somewhere else.

Make sure you do it up nice and tight. It's the most likely to weep.
Although doing it up too tight may make it weep too.
Good luck.
