Temperature gage registers normal although I can hear something bubbling after a 30 minute or so drive.

Hello,

Typically, the gurgling or bubbling noise is due to air trapped in the coolant system.
It can also be due to a leak that is allowing air into the sealed system.

Have you checked your coolant level? You want to make sure that the coolant is at the correct level and there is no leak.

Take a look at this helpful guide:

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
