Thanks Mike but I will give this a shot first along with a new thermostat I currently cant get another drop in it and still not very hot heat! My temp needle is dead center and wont budge I think it should be running a little warmer my 03 does!

5. Release top hose from retaining lugs on the fan
cowl, leaving the hose to rest on the lugs.

6. Remove bleed screw from top hose.

7. Unclip the bleed hose from the battery box.

8. Remove expansion tank from its mounting
bracket. Slowly fill the expansion tank with
coolant, approx. 4 litres (7 pt).

9. Raise the expansion tank approx. 20 cm (8 in)
vertically, coolant will drain into the system.

10. Refill the coolant expansion tank until a steady
flow of coolant is emitted from the bleed hole.

11. Fit the bleed screw then, with the expansion
tank still raised, continue filling the system until
the coolant level reaches the base of the
expansion tank filler neck.

12. Fit expansion tank filler cap, fit the expansion
tank to its mountings and clip the bleed hose to
the battery box.

13. Refit the top hose into its lugs on the fan cowl.

14. Start and run engine until normal operating
temperature is reached, and check for leaks.

15. Switch off engine and allow to cool.

16. Check for leaks and top-up coolant to cold level
mark on expansion tank
