To add coolant to your radiator in a VW Jetta, follow these steps:

1. Park your car on level ground and allow the engine to cool down completely.

2. Open the hood of your car.

3. Locate the coolant reservoir, which is usually a transparent plastic tank with a black cap.

4. Remove the cap from the coolant reservoir.

5. Check the level of the coolant. It should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the reservoir.

6. If the coolant level is low, slowly pour coolant into the reservoir until it reaches the "MAX" mark.

7. Replace the cap on the coolant reservoir.

Here are some additional tips for adding coolant:
