    I would like to ask a question of any of you who may have done a coolant change in the F12. I have reviewed the WSM section on draining and refilling the coolant, and the document seems to make reference to a "static fill" process where the system is refilled by pouring fluid in and the use of a couple of bleed screws.
    I see no mention of the utilization of a vacuum fill system like the Uview Airlift system (as I have done in the past).

    Is it better to use the Uview system irrespective of what the WSM states?

    Thanks,
    Pete

    Airlift system is far superior and negates the need for bleeding.

    Always vac fill when you can.
