It is the radiator reserve tank :smt023

thank you for your fast reply.
sorry for my stupid question, can you explain a little bit more about this reverse tank?
should i fill it with antifreeze?

 

[dotty]

I filled mine up with Honda premixed coolant, there is a min and a max line, you may need a torch to see the lines.

so it must be filled with coolant? the same coolant as in the radiator?

Yes, it's a reserve for the radiator. Only fill it to the 'MAX' marking. There's details/drawing in the owners handbook.

thank you.
i don't have the owners handbook unfortunately.

Here you go -

Just go in to Honda and ask the service desk for 5 litres of coolant, it is not expensive and will last you ages.

Here is a diagram of the min-max line.

You will need a torch
