gurgle / running liquid sound when accelerating

So for a while now when I accelrate especially in 1st and 2nd gear I hear noise from somewhere in the console or like under the shifter. Its hard to describe like gurgling or like water sloshing or running through something down there. Its very weird I thought nothing of it until recently when it became louder, before i would hear it once in a while and now its really present. Everything else is normal besides the terrible transmission. thanks
 




iirc, it should be like an 8mm goldish looking nut. get it running and loosen it until you see the bubbles coming out. then just tighten it back down...
 
Follow my instructions in that thread. You need to bleed it out the old school way.
Air in your heater core is not good. The dexcool will eventually react to the air and turn to sludge and clog it and it will need replaced after coolant leaks into your car.
 
I had this issue and bleeding the system did not work. Then the heater quit working. I looked on youtube how to flush the heater core. It takes about 10 minutes to do and solved the problem.
 


Its actually a 7mm nut. Start the car up and let it fully warm up. Once its warmed up, open the bleeder screw on top of the thermostat housing. If their is air in the system it should come out. Once coolant starts coming out, close it back up.

Be sure to check your coolant level and make sure its full.
