P. 19.4 in Bentley:

As long as your diesel is stock......

one is a "coolant reservoir" at your "7:00" The other is the "coolant
expansion tank" at your "2:00"

I saw in your sig mention of an empty wallet. So.... Keep your eyes
open for a nice cheap and dirty Haynes manual. Good starting point and
good for greasy hands when you get your Bentley!
