My chevy equinox ls 2006 no heater temperature is up, I need bleeding air cooling system please help me
Locate the thermostat housing and see if there is a threaded plug in the housing , if so, when you refill the system with antifreeze, you can 1st remove this plug, and when the anti freeze starts coming out of the plug hole, it is bleeding the air out of the system, then replace the plug, and add antifreze if needed and then replace the radiator cap. start vehicle up , and make sure it has bled properly.
Follow your radiator hoses and on top of the motor there should be a small bolt that stands out of the coolant bypass and possibly another one by a radiator hose. They have petcoks on the engine's. If you find it add your fluid and run the car. Then slightly unscrew the little bolt until it pushes air at you then when fluid pours out and no air comes out tighten the bolt's. If it doesn't have the petcoks pour 50/50 antifreeze fluid into the overflow tank and run the vehicle and wait for the thermostat to open buy watching the gauge on the dash or watching the fluid in the overflow go down and add more fluid to get rid of the trapped air.
Well if you mean the A/C system unless you have a safe way to discharge the A/C coolant you should take it to a shop and have them do it. Plus after you are done you will need a vaccum pump to **** all the air out of the system otherwise when you put freon in it it wont work. That and dont forget its illegal to discharge an A/C system without having the proper equipment. Freon Damages the ozone or so they say.. Now if you are talking about the Antifreeze get a pair of vicegrips and remove the radiator hose from the bottom of the radiator.
SOURCE: 2006 Chevy equinox ls 3.1 how do you bleed the radiator coolant system
If you look on the passenger front of the engine you should see a pipe coming up from the water pump housing. There should be a bleeder screw on the top. use a 9/32" socket to loosen the bleeder. Start the engine and keep bleeder open until coolant comes out. Close it and let the engine come up to temp while periodically opening the bleeder to let any additional air out. Keep an eye on the coolant level and top off as necessary.

SOURCE: where is the bleed screw at for the cooling system on the 2005 Equinox?
If you look at the water pump there is a 1/2 to 3/4 inch hose that comes off it. On top of the metal there is a 3/8 pipe plug that can be used to burp the system.
