Get the cooling system pressure tested for any external leaks, this will locate small leaks that may otherwise go undetected, start here.

I have already had it pressurized and there weren't n e leaks. It does this bubbly sound thing at times (only way I can describe it) could that b w/ coolant system as well

May be an internal leak, get a head check done, this is a simple chemical test for Co in the cooling system, if this is the case it will proberbly be the early stages of a head gasket problem.
