Really I've seen allot of threads saying to bleed the system... wouldn't you risk an airlock if you didn't?

I've always bled coolant with the car idling, check the level it should drop as air bubbles out the system, top up, let it drop, top up, let it drop, eventually it'll stop dropping and you'll know there's no or at least very little air anywhere in the system?

Yeah I just thought the matrix was the highest point to bleed the system so you need a header tank?
