Make sure the heater is fully open. Fill the system up, turn the engine on and watch for air bubbles coming out the filler neck. Add more coolant as required. Keep doing this until no more air comes out, then put the cap on and go for a drive. Let it cool down and check it again.

??thats wierd??? i dont think i reset just the ecu, maybe i did more than that, cause all i did was take the negative off the battery terminal, stompped on the breaks a few times and reconnected it. maybe its just coincidence, the day i unplug is when it stopped buzzin for good.
