Default Coolent level question

As per my normal sop I checked fluids today like I do every week and I am having the coolant settle just below then level indicator on the side of the resevior, but no less. Would I have a leak that stops at that level? What am I missing here?
I fill it to level then it settles back to the same spot short of full.

Thanks in advance

did you bleed the system correctly? sounds like there is air in there.

The Coolant Tank level will settle just about at the mark arrow on the tank and should stay in this area unless you have a leak. I would maybe place a piece of tape on the tank at the coolant level with the date wrote on the tape with magic marker. Keep an eye on it weekly and see if it moves. If it does, chances are you have a leak, probably very minor either internally or externally that isn't making it to the ground.
