The connection you have the hose connected to is for sucking anti-freeze into the water lines. Hose should be connected to the next inlet down. Then use the valve at the bottom that says "normal...

Popping and cracking sounds from the axle area are also normal when backing up in sharp turns and going over holes, bumps, and humps. It really sounds like normal noises to me.

True and I agree completely. Mine's probably a case of "yet another Vantage problem". Seems lots of things on the Vantage weren't done quite right and/or weren't thought out very well.
