Default losing engine coolant

i noticed the coolant level keeps getting lower in the overflow tank, so i had the dealer checked. They did a pressure test and flush the cooling system but found no problems whatsoever. I did not see any coolant mixed in with the oil. What else is there to check?

when you've driven your car for a while where it heats up pretty good, can you smell any coolant in the cockpit?

it was air trapped in the cooling system, i had it "burped" and never lost coolant again. But now my heat is not hot enough like it used to be, having it checked next week
