Drive for 10mi, ish, check coolant level. Probably not as thorough as the proper bleed procedure, but it seems to work!

Thanks for the information. So I take it these M57 engines do have an electrical coolant pump and the ignition on/pedal down venting procedure is applicable to this engine.
I will now need to source the washer for the engine block coolant drain plug before attempting to do this job.
I will keep this thread updated.
