So the saga continues--

Driving to the shop to get the coolant replaced- car ran cool. Coolant level was stable, so I must have successfully purged most all the air.

The shop checked the car- no leaks, no issues with the cooling system. Replaced the coolant. I picked up the car.

Eight miles on the way home the temp starts rising & coolant light starts flashing.

I pull over, call the shop - they said it was an anomaly. Should have been good. Let it cool off & put some water in the tank. Put in @ 3/4 gal.Got home, reservoir was a little low, put in the rest of the gallon.
This was a shop that specializes in German cars. Don't think I'll go to that shop again
