Message is cold. Fluid should be at filler opening and at the high mark of overflow reservoir. If not, remove the bleed screw at the top left on the radiator then add fluid to top off. Then start car and let idle for 4 or 5 minutes to get to operating temperature, then turn heater on high for 2 minutes. Shut engine off and let cool completely. Check fluid level again in radiator and overflow reservoir when car is cold and top of the RESERVOIR as necessary.

Check fluid again after several days of driving and make sure both radiator and overflow are still at proper levels. If not, then you've got a leak that could also be letting air enter system.

If you've still got the gurgle after all this, then it's not your coolant system.
