    Guys,
    It’s kind of difficult to see the max/min engine coolant reservoir line on our 3rd gen.
    To me, it seems the “Full”’line is where the “top lid” of the plastic reservoir meets the bottom portion of the reservoir; it’s very close to where the “lip” or rim of the top piece goes all the way around the top portion and the “Min” mark is also just below the “lip” of “rim” where the two pieces meet.
    Am I reading it right?
    If someone has an image of it clearly showing the “max/min” line, that would be great.
    Thanks!
