The astra 1.6 petrol car radiator don,t have any bleed nut so you have to remove the bottom hose end on the radiator to flush the system .When the engine is cooled.

start engine .heater in hot possition.run at approx 2000 rpm.hold hand over windscreen outlet vent feeling for heat.when vent heat is hot to touch,run cur at fast tickover till rad fan kicks in(if fitted)switch off when fan does .let cool and check fluid levels.should do it.
