Do not open / disturb pressurised cooling system. Without any leaks or discharge, when you run out of water in the reservoir bottle, then you worry bout it.

i use to do the same just check the reservoir until it started to overheat plenty of coolant in the reservoir but the engine war dry even the mechanic said always check the engine and you should see coolant same as yours

i thought it be the as the ecotec as it sucks the reservoir dry not the alloytec its a different animal

That's quite OK. Cause after you driven the car pressure buildes up, pushes the coolant into reservoir bottle, when you drive the car next time it will suck the coolant back in as its needed .
