My car is losing water and running hot. Usually takes about 15 miles to start running hot. I can't find a leak. I have replaced the thermostat, water pump, and flushed the radiator. Any suggestions, also there is no water in the oil.

Hi rushjohnson,

If coolant is depleting, there definitely must be some place it is getting to.

Get a presssure test done to check for the leaks.
Check if the cabin carpets are wet, that would indocate a leak at the heater core.
