Allow fluid to sit for a few hrs as if it is very aerated you will still have problems, the sir will naturally work its way out, if the fluid looks normal after sitting for a few hrs and it still makes noises and the fluid becomes aerated again, re check that you have not over tightened "O" ring seals as they can split.
