What about loosing coolant but not seeing any puddles? Can the water pump be bad or have a leak? I can't see any leaks but I have to fill about 8oz of water every day when I get the light. I just fill it first thing in the morning now. 
If your getting a rough idle and white smoke at start up and have to keep adding coolant then most likely its the coolant seals..
I have some good info about this subject in detail on my website.
Under Tech info.

check the small hose that comes off of the bottom of the AST. i had a problem once where mine was flappin around and the fan blades chewed it up....i would see coolant for about 3 or 4 minutes at a time, and then it would stop once the pressure evened out......so it won't be something that you see all the time if it is from that lower hose.....
