Hi, Mates!
I noticed that the coolant bottle is very close to be filled when the engine is hot.
I know that the coolant system is under pressure, but I really don’t know if is normal that it makes bubbles when it has been stopped.
There is the hose coming from the thermostat that is bubbling for minutes and it stop only when the electrical pumps starts. When it stops, the hose starts to bubble again.
Thanks, F.

That is quite normal nothing to worry about, you could let the engine tick over until the fans cut in and when they stop then switch off to reduce the heat

While you have the cap off, whiff your coolant. If it smells of charge, your head gasket is weeping.
