Jon_vr6 1 Posted December 1, 2013 When I replace the matrix do I need to fill the matrix up to avoid an airlock? Im not draining the whole system just undoing the 2 heater pipes Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted December 1, 2013 Its not essential if you bleed the whole system after, but would certainly help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted December 1, 2013 I just drained out what was in it and put the same about in the matrix before fitting it back As for parts goldie all you need is a lot of time and patience and a heater matrix preferably a valeo one which you should be able to find on ebay as the one from GSF now is a febi one not a valeo one as it was a few years back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
