Default disappearing coolant?

97 A4--says coolant is low...add some then when it is shut off...it will leak from the overflow. It never looks like there's enough in there but if you add, it will come out the overflow after shutdown. I do hear aslight gurgling noise in the dash. I've just had the cooler replaced. Any suggestions?

the cooler? I assume you mean the heater matrix or the radiator ^defiantly air in the system^ ensure you have the heat turned to max so it bleeds the matrix as well as the engine and radiator
