Gurgling
I had the 80,000 servicing done...by a Honda Dealer. Ever since, my car gurgles, like a stomach. I've been back to the dealer (80 mile round trip) twice and my car still gurgles. Am I describing the problem incorrectly? What might it be? What can be done?

Re: Gurgling
Air is trapped in the cooling system. Raise the car on jack stands or ramps and let the engine idle for 5 minutes with the radiator higher than the engine. Or drive it for a hundred miles or so- the air will transfer to the overfill tank and gurgling will go away.

My advice works. Just start the car and let idle until operating temp. Shut it off and go away while it cools at least an hour making sure the overflow tank is full to the hot mark. Come back and top off both the radiator and overflow tank after making sure they are cool.

You give a new definition to the word "desperation". You might have been a man once, but not any more. Carry on, Charlie. Now that you have been exposed for what you are, even chanbuddy will be disgusted.
