Ok so I want to flush the radiator now Ive not done it before in the magna anything I need to know? In my last car it had a air nipple to let out air bubbles in the system.
Summer comming I want to redo the coolant is all.

Id consider changing the thermostat, the two main top hoses, and radiator cap also
Try and use the 'colour changing coolant, so you know next time when its getting old'
Make sure you have a hose, with a trigger nozzle too blast through
see the above threads, any more advise just ask

Yeah...Turn heater controls on...take ya thermostat out, undo your bottom radiator hose, and put the hose in the thermostat housing, this should back flush everything including your heater core.
