I just had a radiator installed. Prior to installation & after installation I hear a bubbling or clicking sound after the car is turned off...Is this normal?

HI there,

There may be air trapped in the cooling system still, i would return it to the workshop and get them to check & re bleed the system, make sure that they include the heater as well.
