coolant reservoir lower

[kowaliga]

at 6500 miles the coolant reservoir level has decreased from the 'full' mark to a point about 2" above the 'add' mark. No evidence of leaks, but, used the ac/heater for the first time last week. I check under the hood at least once a week for abonormalities and coolant is always full. I will check oil level today but wanted to ask if the heater core might be empty at the factory, only filling when first used? I have no 'signature' yet, but the '05 is Q. C. /4x4/G56/LWB and runs/rides like a dream. Well, it doesn't exactly ride like a dream...

My 05 did the same thing. The dealer said it was normal and I've noticed no problems and it hasn't went down any more. I've noticed after it's been ran it will rise to about half full which is normal. Wouldn't worry about it

If the drop in coolant continues, it could be a bad radiator cap. I have had this happen twice since the truck was new.
