After my spectacular loss off all coolant today its taking me an age to fill it all back up again, is it just a case of being patient while it flushes through?

so far ive used about 1 and a quarter bottles of G12 so it should be almost full soon
 
on my old car there was a bleed valve near the rear of the engine to remove the air from the system. not sure if there is something on the A3 though. Are you running the engine when you top it up to move the coolant round?
