03 G35 heater hose Tee connector
Hey guys so the other day I was sitting in my car with the ac on and my car started to run hot a little so I cut it off the I noice a lot of white smoke coming from wear my heater hose tee connector is. I get out and notice a larg amount of antifreeze running from under my car I put the hood up and saw that my heater hose tee connector has cracked in half witch shot antifreeze everywhere. So I went to auto zone and brought another fixed it put more antifreeze in but I'm unsure if I'm bleeding it properly. My car has never ran hot until the tee connector broke. I start my car and let it run it dose not over heat but when I drive it get hot slowly so I would have to pull over and cut it off. I've checked my oil it normal there's no white smoke coming from my exhaust there's no leaks my heat and cold air works fine don't have any light on. But when it over heat I hear bubbling in the front heater hose that connects to the radiator and when I cut it off the Engine sucks the antifreeze from the reservoir. So not sure if I have enough antifreeze or not. Can anybody help me please.
It's difficult to remove all the air from the system, google "g35 bleeding cooling system" get a Lisle spill free funnel to help with the task.
Dealership is also an option, if it's been a while since your last flush (manufacturer recommended 30k) then just get a flush done.

Did you put in a 50/50 blend? If so then you're fine, concentrated antifreeze needs to be diluted with DISTILLED water to a 50/50 mix. Also did you verify that the antifreeze was compatible with your vehicle or did you just grab some random green stuff off the shelf? There are quite a few different kinds of antifreeze. Owners manual discusses all this information.
All the air is out of my line and at idle my car does not get hot everything works fine but when I start to drive my car starts to get hot so I'm thanking my thermostat is sticking so gonna change it out.
