HEADGASKET BLOWN....or has it?!?!?
#7
Piggy - i would rebleed the system as per normal using the bleeder valves etc & put cap on and run for a bit, fans etc. After a few mins Undo cap slowly to release the pressure then leave the cap off over night to let the extra little bit of air surface, due to the design little pockets off air meet up and create a bigger air pocket from my understanding.

Next day undo the bleed valve on the radiator just slightly for water to escape from and redo up tight & top up the expansion bottle if required and the put the rad cap back on
