Coolant can only be lost through leaking outside the engine or inside the engine

Check engine oil for coolant
Check transmission oil for coolant
Check you are not consuming coolant through a bad head gasket
Remove under-engine panel and clean it, then refit and drive for a couple of weeks, remove and look for fresh oil/coolant stains
Remove under-engine cover and park over a clean sheet of cardboard, see if anything drops down
Remove timing belt cover and look for leaks around water pump
