If you bled the system as per the book, just keep the bleed valve flipped open for a couple of days of normal driving - the heating / cooling cycles should get rid of any small air pockets trapped in the system.
As Spinnaker says, just keep an eye on the level.

I now have the bleed valve open for a couple days... Do I close it hot or cold? Do I remove the reservoir cap to burp the system again while it is hot (per the Bentley manual) before closing the bleed valve?
