Read this sentence back to yourself and tell me if it makes sense to you, honestly.

Been having the exact same problem. Found out that it was air bubbles tonight. Sooo I used a handy little tool....it creates a vaccum and sucks the air out and then pushes coolant in the system to make sure there are zero air bubbles. It then took me seriously like at least an hour to get all the bubbles out. Gotta love changing the coolant from like 5:45-8:45 haha BUT the problems are solved.
