I noticed recently when I filled my windshield washer resevoir that my coolant resevoir was empty. I filled it up to the cold level mark on the side of the resevoir with coolant and the truck engine cold. I have checked it several times over a couple of weeks and the resevoir is always either empty or almost empty. So I refill it again. I haven't noticed any leaking on the ground or inside around the engine or antifreeze smell. A new radiator and hoses were installed about 5 months ago. I haven't had any overheating warnings from the lights or the gauge either. What could be the problem please?

Might be the water pump, sometimes they will only leak when running and them the coolant gets dried from wind and heat so you dont see any leaks. Have it pressure tested, this should show any leaks
