You mightn't see water but a coolant leak will offer leave a tell tale white residue around the site of a leak,small leaks can be hard to locate as they only weep and when the engine is running the cooling system is under pressure plus it's hot so the coolant evaporates off showing no sign.
You could try a pressure tester and leave it on the system to see if it pushes any coolant out when the engine is cold so eliminating the evaporation
If you can borrow a tester look on your cap and you will see the working pressure printed that the system works at IE how much before the system vents do not exceed this when you pump the tester up there's no need and you could cause other problems in doing so
