Zusammenfassung:An exemplary assembly includes, among other things, a manifold having an interior area with a baffle, and a reservoir. The baffle divides a portion of the interior area into a first region that is part of a first fluid loop of a vehicle, and a second region that is part of a separate, second fluid loop of the vehicle. The reservoir is configured to hold a supply of liquid that is in fluid communication with both the first and second regions. An exemplary method includes, among other things, communicating a fluid from a supply within a reservoir to both a first and a second region within an interior area of a manifold. The first region is part of a first fluid loop of a vehicle. The second region is part of a separate second fluid loop of the vehicle.
