My Q2 is approaching 5 years old and I noticed that my coolant level has dropped just below the minimal line. As the Q3 and Q2 have some similarities I thought I'd ask here.
I don't check it that regularly, and it's always been towards the low marker. However, I think I should give it a top up.

Questions:
The manual states: "Add coolant in the correct concentration up to the top mark". Is that to the 'max' or 'min' mark, I think on here people normally say it should be around the minimal marker when the engine is stone cold?
Do I need to replenish the coolant from time to time? I was going to buy some of this TRIPLE QX Purple (G13) (Ready Mixed) Antifreeze/Coolant 1Ltr | Euro Car Parts but I noticed it says "can be left in the system as a coolant and rust inhibitor for up to a maximum of 5 years" so should the whole coolant be flushed anyway as part of it's upcoming service?
Many thanks!
