I filled mine up at the header tank... and it never overheats on cold days it doesn't even (quite) get to the half way mark..

If its still overheating after you've toped up then i'd have it checked.

Top up the header tank, but if the overheating problem persists, get it to a garage asa, as you may be doing further damage to the cylinder head, as sounds like a leaking head gasket, thats just started to fail.
