- Fiesta MK7.5
Hello
I have a 2015 Ford Fiesta Mk7.5 with 150.000 km (93.000mile),Duratec engine i'm the first owner of the car.
The climate where i live is similair to southern Europe so it's not so cold in the winter and warm in the summer and i never had any overheating problems But this summer was very hot, it reached 48c and that day while i was driving home from work the Radiator started leaking and luckily i smelled the coolant and stopped immidiately so nothing happened to the engine.
so i bought a Radiator, anyways i checked it and there was no Bleeding valve like the one i had, so i asked the Seller and he told me that this is not a bleeder but it's where the overflow pipe connects the radiator to the Coolant tank, so i checked online and i found that half of the Fiestas with the same year/Engine have a bleeder and the other half have an Overflow pipe or "Automatic Bleeder" as they called it, so do you have any idea why some models doesn't have it ? and do you think that i should add an overflow pipe or should i live it like it was ?
