Not had my 300d long but I flushed the water system and added fresh antifreeze and the only way I could bleed the system back up was to remove the temp sender switch sits on top of engine also make sure you got temp setting switches to max sorry if you have done these already

Just to the left of the battery is a heater pipe connection, bleed it there.

Tried bleeding at hose beside battery,even put garden hose on it and all I could get at other end was a trickle of water,any more ideas. Thanks John

If it's an air block it helps to park up on a kerb with the expansion tank at the highest point take the cap off and 'burp' it while running. Helped with my 230 anyway.
cheers
