I have a 1998 ES300 (146k miles) and my thermostat and my valve cover gaskets were replaced, but seemingly I am losing immense amounts of coolant. I bought a full jug and have filled my reservoir 3 times in the last couple months. No visible leaks but has a definite coolant smell. Not boiling in radiator, oil looks fine, no white smoke, just coolant smell when idle and no noticeable leaks anywhere. My local mechanics haven’t found anything either and I’m clueless at this point. Any help would be very appreciated thank you!!

Unsure if water pump has been done, that’s next on my list.
