where is the radiator bleeder valve on a D16y8 engine?

I think i maybe having IACV issues due to air in the coolant.
any help would be appreciated!

there is no bleeder valve like on the z6. Just take off your radiator cap and let it run for a long time so that all the air will bubble out of the top of the radiator.

Yup, the helms guide says that the fan should switch on twice to ensure a good bleed.
