Well, the first place I would check is around the heater core and the rest of the system. Also, just topping off the radiator and the pickup container isn't gonna do the trick. If you have a leak, there's tons of possibililities, not just those two. But yeah, check the heater core, that's probably your problem.

I would do the basics of checking if their is air pockets, and also checking if the thermostat was stuck. Just the basic stuff to start off with...

There are two hoses that connect to the heater. They should both be hot, if only one is, then you need to get it fixed. If the heat isn't working this is most likely your problem. I doubt there's a problem with your thermostat, maybe though. If it wasn't reaching normal operating temperature, then I'd say get a new thermo., but it's not doing that.
