Some of the water pumps have a plastic impeller which in time brakes up.

Probably this if it hasn’t been renewed ^^^
Bubbling is either :
1) temperature above boiling point (boiling)
2) a gas is present (bubbling).

Worth checking stat though. Start a thread in RR section - loads in searchbar there about them
