How many radiator bleed screws on D8 SRI?

[jason1987]

i need to fill my coolin system with anti freeze soon (just water in atm), last time i did it i could only find 2 bleed screws, reason i ask is im on my 2nd heater matrix, last one leaked again but think it was due to the coolant cap being jammed and not releasing pressure, have now got a new cap, just wanna make sure im not missing a bleed screw and it happening again.

the bleed screws i found were on the thermostat and by the bulkhead on heater pipe i think

I'd expect another on the top rear of the radiator, the 2.1 td had one (along with perished washer) and so does the HDi. Unless it's a moody rad of course.

If memory serves (it was a long time ago when I had an XU10J2TE and changed its thermostat), there's just the two which you've found.

Yep, spot on.
