What is the Air Bleed Housing Assembly all about?

Coolant is essential to engine operation throughout the year. It carries away heat that would otherwise kill the engine during operation, but it also protects against freezing during winter – normal water can freeze solid inside an engine, causing immense damage from expansion. However, coolant degrades over time and must be changed. Changing the coolant allows air into the system, which must be removed in order for the engine to operate correctly. Air in the coolant lines can cause many problems, including overheating and severe engine damage.

The air bleed housing assembly, or air bleeder housing assembly if you prefer, is a simple setup generally found near the back of the engine that allows you to combat this problem. It is usually the highest point on the cooling system. It’s nothing more than a small housing with a bleeder nut attached. By opening the valve while the engine is running after a coolant change, air escapes out of the system and prevents overheating.

Keep in mind:

  • The air bleed housing assembly is not inspected during normal maintenance, but should be inspected during any coolant system service.
  • The air bleed housing assembly is made of metal, and running straight water in your system can cause problems including rust and corrosion that will require the assembly to be replaced.

How it's done:

  • The air bleed housing assembly is verified to see if it needs to be replaced
  • The defective air bleed housing assembly is removed
  • The new air bleed housing assembly is installed
  • The air bleed housing assembly is tested for operation and leaks
  • The vehicle is tested to ensure proper operation of the air bleed housing assembly

Our recommendation:

The air bleed housing assembly on your car’s coolant system is crucial after a coolant system change. If air is not removed from the lines, the engine could overheat from an airlock, causing damage as serious as a cracked block in extreme situations. Have the air bleeder housing assembly replaced by one of our expert mechanics if it is corroded or inoperable.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Air Bleed Housing Assembly?

  • Bleeder valve will not open
  • Bleeder valve or assembly is damaged in some way that compromises operation
  • The housing is leaking coolant.

How important is this service?

While the air bleed housing assembly isn’t critical to normal operation, it’s a crucial part of your engine coolant system. If the bleeder valve is damaged, or the assembly is corroded, we recommend replacing it as soon as possible. It will not prevent you from driving your car, but it can cause serious issues after a coolant change.

Ram ProMaster 2500 V6-3.6L - Brake Pads Replacement (Front) - Tampa, Florida
On time / early, done well within expectations and as far as I can tell did a great job at the task to replace the brake pads. Provided insight on other issues and was upbeat about getting it done. Made for a most welcome experience with YourMechanic.

Ram ProMaster 2500 L4-3.0L Turbo Diesel - Strut Assembly Replacement (Front) - Fernandina Beach, Florida
I was hesitant to book through YourMechanic because I knew nothing about it prior to finding it through an internet search, were the reviews even real? Well this review is real because I took a chance and Booked Brian based on his very good reviews. I have a RAM Promaster 2500 Diesel commercial van that has challenged even the RAM dealerships that I have previously used for service. The strut installation required removing parts of the dash in order to access bolts at the top of the strut assemblies. My initial skepticism of Brian and YourMechanic led my to download detailed instructions about how to remove the dash assemblies. When asked, Brian indicated that he didn't need the instructions. I let him continue, fully expecting him to eventually ask for the directions for this unique installation. Before I knew it, Brian had neatly removed the necessary parts that allowed him to access the required bolts; Brian's method was actually more effective than the method in my downloaded instructions. Brian did such a great job on my suspension that I booked him for the rest of the day to replace my rear brakes. My wife's car was also making noises and Brian diagnosed the issue very quickly. Finding a reliable and knowledgeable mechanic can be difficult. I've now found one in Brian and will continue to use Brian as needed in the future. In fact I plan to book him soon to service our other vehicle. I highly recommend Brian.
