Hi Folks
Just wondered if an 2008 CRDI 1.6l has a coolant drainplug on the block? Or perhaps just the tap valve at the bottom of the rad is all that is required to get the old coolant out.

Thanks for the link Shambles. No mention of a drain plug on the block so I just drained what I could from the rad plug and 4.5lts came out. As the old coolant looked in good nick I will leave it at that as two thirds have been replaced. I was tempted to stick a hose in the filler and flush out the rest of the old coolant with car running and heater on but then i would have ended up with a couple of litres of tap water stuck in the system.
Cheers
