Low coolant after timing belt/water pump replacement?
Just got done with my timing belt and water pump yesterday, now I have low coolant. The warning light doesn't come on the dash, but it's below the "low" level when warm by about an inch, and by a few inches when cold. Is this just the system bleeding?

I'm pretty sure I put enough in. I topped off today and it looks like it maybe went down a little again but I'm not sure, guess I'll see in the morning. I really hope I don't have to take the whole front end apart again.

I didn't replace those, but the tank isn't leaking or anything. I'm really confused since there's no spots on the grounds from a leak.

Second, check below and around your tank. White or pink spots indicate a leak.
Third, check around your oil filter. The two coolant lines around the cooler tend to build up a film of white and pink bubble gum. It's an indication of a leak at this spot.
Last, check the radiator end tanks. They tend to leak on the driver's side (where the hoses are located) due to being pried on during removal or installation. You'll usually spot a trail of pink or white going down towards the pan.
