My guess sludge. It's probably not air but gases created by sludge in system. That'll also make it noisy. Obvious place to start I know but that's why I suggest that first.
 
Could be the pump drawing air down the vent and filling the Rad every few days or the rushing noise could be the pump pushing through a nearly closed rad valve.
 
Cold feed and vent arrangement wrong. This will have caused a build up of crud in the surrounding pipe work, causing it to suck down the expansion.
Power flush plus pressurisation your best bet.
