Hi Beut,
Radiator Coolant goes into an Overflow Reservoir rather than directly into the radiator. You will find it under the hood, on the left side, close to the left windshield wiper.
Adios!
Brian

Go to my page and look up the coolant tank. I have a photo of what it looks like but not where it is. It is located on the left side (facing out) at the firewall just forward the windshield. Hope that helps.

I think he is asking if it should be filled to the top.

I think he means , is the tank filled to the top? The tank is filled to the ring inside the filler neck, not all the way to the top.
