I have an 8v, 1200, year is 2000. When I start up there is a sound of like water gurgling through the system. Any ideas what it is? Could the system require bleeding?

The noise disappears when car is warm.
 
Could the head gasket be gone? The car runs rough for a few minutes when cold also.
 
Theres two bleeding points, one on the top right hand side of the rad and one on a pipe going to the heater matrix.
 
It is the head gasket! This is my second Punto and the gasket went in the last one as well. This time it has gone at 40000m.

Such is life.

You may find that the head gasket went as a result of the water system needing to be bled.....
