Exclamation 55 major coolant loss

Can someone point me to the right direction, I got major coolant disappearing. No visible leaks. I'm talking 1 liter per 5 miles disappearing.

The rad hose seems soft and not building pressure. No signs of coolant in the oil,

What test procedures should I start with, where should I look? I got split cooling from the block and S/C

Are you smoking at all? Is your exhaust smoke white in color? If its not burning the coolant, then it has to be leaking. If there isn't a puddle on the ground then the coolant fairies must be taking it LOL.

you can buy one of those test kits to see if exhaust gases are present in the coolant.
