There's some air in the system somewhere. Park it uphill, cold, open the cap and run it and fill it at the same time.

Mine makes a bit of this noise sometimes. It runs fine and I don't worry much about it.-------------------------------------------------------

Why does my 1991 Volkswagen Jetta gurgle?

This would explain the 'gurgles' if it sounds like water.

Bogging is likely to be Throttle Body and MAF needs cleaning.

2005 Lincoln Town Car has a gurgling noise under dash when car is idling & when you shut it off. Form dealer told me this is normal. I don't believe it is.

Sometimes a VERY slight hiss is audible after using the ac. But a gurgling is not normal and usually a sign that there is air in the cooling system. The noise is the air "gurgling" through the heater core. I'd almost bet money that's the problem.

I have a 2005 Kia Spectra ex. Had mechanic look at it twice. Had battery alternator and starter tested. All good. Check engine light is not on. Just had tune up trasmission fluid exchange done. The power...

The ringing noise could be from a bad alternator, a loose bolt, a loose pulley or gear or possibly a low fluid level in the power steering pump. Try listening for the noise when the engine is idling, then as you rev the motor from 1000 to 1800rpm and also while you are driving on the street and the highway. While the car is in park and running, crank the steering wheel right and/or left until it stops and hold it there to listen for noises from the power steering. The electronic gurgling noise and chattering noises could be failing bearings in one of the pulleys (tensioner, idler,etc. and/or possibly a water pump bearing. Here is a tip for diagnosis- Find 3/8 drive extension that is at least 12" to 18" long. Open the hood and start the car. Take one end of the extension and place it on the alternator body away from any electrical connections, pulleys, belts, etc. and put your ear against the other end and listen for chattering, ringing or any other odd noise. Then do the same to the p/s pump, a/c compressor, etc. BE SURE YOU SAFELY APPLY THIS TECHNIC AND IF YOU DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE, TAKE IT TO A PROFESSIONAL. SAFETY FIRST.

Bad bearing? where?

You will need to figure out where the noise is coming from.If it does it while idling then look under the hood.Could be alternator,a/c clutch,water pump,tensioner.If it is under the hood then remove the serpentine belt and see what pulley you can`t turn by hand.Caution it could be hot.Good luck.

2005 Kia Sorento gurgling noise behind dash

Check the water coolant level because some of the hot water goes into the heater radiator behind the dash. Seems you have air in the system.
