Also, something about the heater, it takes some time to give me hot air and spikes on the temp gage when i try to turn the heater on. THey said this has nothing to do with the bubbles and is normal... and earlier in the post i stated in detail about this and i agree with viper with what the guy told me.... i just think the bastards have been joy riding. I demanded to have my car back saturday but the said they wouldnt release it to me with out me signing a wavier of warranty, how screwed up is that?

I suppose you could check the mileage on the Repair Order and on the odometer. BTW to bleed the system you might try one of those radiator pressure testers that look like a little pump. You screw them onto the radiator cap spot and pump them to a few PSI. Then open the bleed valves until H2O comes out. Start the engine, wing it a few times and open the valves again.

Any radiator shop should have one of the pumps.

Stay cool.
