After running around town last week in my Syncro Westy, I noticed that right after I shut off the engine, I heard gurgling noises from the cooling system. I quickly ran to the back, lifted the hatch and noticed that coolant seemed to be bubbling into the expansion tank. It stopped after about 45 seconds, and as I recall the level in the over flow tank appeared to be normal. This is the only time this has happened, and it hasn't happened since. Is this normal, or do I need to "burp" the cooling system? Could it be a sticky thermostat? PS - the cooling system, engine, hoses, H20 pump were replace about 25,000 miles ago.
