You may be air locked in the heater matrix, check for levels and if okay try bleeding the system (when its cold - safety) by letting air/water out of the top engine hoses. Run the engine again with heater on max and see if it has improved, if needed repeat the same until all is okay. Good Luck.

From take off some times traction active light comes on and the vehicle will not accelerate. And sounds like gurgling water behind dash upper left.

Check tread on tires. Gurgling usually due to air in coolant passages. Park uphill and top off coolant with engine running.

Gurgling sound dash

Depends.
It could be water trapped inside the heater box, or air in the cooling system. If the sound happens when you take off from a stop, it could be low on coolant. If it happens when you are making a turn, it could be water in the heater box. The drain could be plugged up.

04 sebring gurgling engine

I expect you are getting air into the system, probably due to low coolant level which is probably caused by the leak. You need to get the leak fixed as soon as possible, and in any case, keep the overflow tank full.

I get a gurgling sound coming from behind the dash

Does the sound stop after a minute or two? IF so, this is normal. When the a/c is working, there is high pressure on one side of the expansion valve, and low pressure on the other. When you turn the a/c off, the pressures equalize. That's the noise you are hearing.

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.
