If as u say don't have any leaks, then there could have been an air pocket, when the air is expelied as it should via the header tank cap valve there is a void which the coolent fills leaving a low coolent level.
 
mine had me baffled for a week, then i saw it purely by chance out of the heater matrix pipe, it had been rubbing on the engine lift bracket, but what a job i had trying to find it!
