You need to take it to a repair shop and ask them to perform a cooling system pressure test first. This way they will be able to pinpoint the location of the leak. Zee
If you have a coolant leak and don't see anything on the ground, then it sound like an internal leak. Coolant can leak into the engine and will turn the oil a milk color, or it is burning up in the engine from the head gasket. A test called a "block test" is performed to see if their is combustion gases in the cooling system. This test will confirm that you do or don't have a head gasket leak. We do that test here at Superior Automotive in Rancho Cordova, CA.
Great answer from Randy. We need more details from the poster though. He didn't mention overheating nor white "smoke" from the exhaust. About 20% of coolant leaks are steam anyway, not liquid. Zee
