So the hose is as hot as all the other hoses

 

I just changed my radiator tonight and I do not have any heat. I bled the coolant a few times. I poured coolant into the radiator to fill the system and only took a little under a gallon before it was coming out of the bleeder hole. I thought we should have roughly two gallons of coolant?

 

I have this same issue, '04 sedan, but my heat increases with RPM, and while driving is at a respectable level of heat. Is this normal? When I was in AZ it never got cold enough to need the heater so high.

 

Bleed the coolant system..I'm getting heat now that I've done it a couple times.

 

What is the best way to bleed it?

 

There is a bleeding screw on the passenger side of the engine bay, right near the firewall.

 

Ok but do I do it when the vehicle is at operating temperature or what

 

Yes, go for a 20 minutes drive and then bleed the system. You will need to rev the engine to 3000RPMs and hold it for 10 seconds right before bleeding. Just search for more information, there are plenty of threads about this topic.

 

why has noone commented on how the OP capitalized the first letter of every word in his post? lulz

 

He may have capitalized the whole post. When he posted, G35Driver converted each word to only start with a capital letter.

 

ahhh! I was not aware vbulletin did that now.
(btw, this is all typed in caps just to see if it works)
:d

Might be his phone or something else autocorrecting..
