If the reservoir has a hose that travels to the top of the radiator, then it is filled with engine coolant. If the hose is not connected to the radiator, then it is most likely a windshield washer bottle.

How does an automotive radiator reservoir work?

A hot radiator releases excess coolant through the spring-loaded cap in to the reservoir, and when cooled the partial vacuum created by cooled radiator pulls it back in.

Why could your 94 BMW be using so much coolant?

It probably has a leak. Here's something to check - the radiator has a tube coming out to the reservoir, so when it gets hot and expands the coolant goes into the reservoir and should go back into the radiator when it cools, but if your reservoir has a crack and the coolant leaks out, well it's gone and can't go back into the radiator - this would cause a lot of loss of coolant.
