If the coolant is low, no need to add more coolant. Just add water.
Adding coolant to the plastic reservoir will not immediately fill the radiator.
Coolant will only flow from the reservoir to the radiator during engine cool-down
via a siphon. If the siphon is not working, the 'closed system' has been breached, and
air is entering the cooling system via a 'hole' in the system. If the reservoir level does
not reduce during cool-down, you have a leak.
