Default 2000 Accord with boiling noise

We just had the timing belt and water pump replaced at a local garage on our 2000 Honda Accord 2 Dr Coupe. On the way home my wife said the car starting making a boiling sound. Any ideas? Thank you!

I would take it back to the shop. It could be air in the coolant, but have them take a look at it. Does the temperature gauge in the car read normal?

The gauge is normal...its not running hot. It there a trick to getting the air out myself?

4-cylinder engine? If so, there's a bleed valve back on the thermostat housing. Follow the LOWER radiator hose back over the tranny to the thermostat.

One problem is when an air pocket collects near the temperature sender for the gauge, it won't read hot.
