Whoosh sound after changing coolant?

I remember reading about this some time ago, but can't find anything on it when searching.

Just changed out my coolant, added water wetter, etc.............now I've got a whooshing sound when you blip the throttle.............sort of a gurgling/whooshing sound that sounds like it comes from the glove box.

Is there a quick cure or is this just air in the system that will eventually work itself out through the AST or whatever.............

Thanks.

If you have an AST, it should work its way out. What you are hearing is air trapped in the heater core. If it doesn't stop after a while, then bleed the system.
