    Please can someone tell me the best way to drain coolant from my vectra b 2.0 dti. I know people say, just take the hose off the bottom of the rad, but i can't see anything as the bottom of the bumper is in the way. The only one i can see is for the intercooler, but obviously thats no good. Surely i don't have to take the bumper off to do this. This does look like a stupid design, or is it just me being stupid. Any help would be much appreciated.

    hose is the only way mate and it will not drain the full system as the thermostat will be closed. should get to it from underneath
