I'm having a tough time getting the air out of my cooling system
There are a couple of threads on this subject already, but some of the advice is contradictory, so I'm hoping one of you can provide a straightforward procedure.
I have a 2002 Cooper. I replaced the thermostat and expansion tank and changed the coolant. The car doesn't overheat, but I hear gurgling when I stop that wasn't there before, so I'm assuming I didn't get all the air out when I bled the system.
Appreciate the help.

Yes. Also the bleed screw on the heater hose left of the battery. One thing I noticed is that the reservoir seems to stay full no matter how much coolant leaks from the bleeder hoses.
