melting plastic sound
hey guys... I haven't had any issues with my rx-8 yet, but occasionally I hear an odd sound right after I start the car (or right after I shut it off). It sounds like melting/crinkling plastic coming from inside the dash - the sound lasts for about 10 seconds. I don't know how else to describe it.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal? Should I be worried?
Thanks

It's air in the coolant lines. Nothing to worry about. Burp your system if you want to take care of it. Take off radiator cap, idle engine for 5-15min with heater on full blast.
