Water loss over a couple of weeks no visible leaks on the ground did see some around the intake ports. I had water in the over flow canister but the radiator was low by about a quart or so
NO ENGINE TOLD MINE IS 3.8L ENGINE.
MINE FAILED LIKE THIS. 2008, WANGLER 2DR 4WD X BODY
KEEP THE RAD FULL (AM COLD ENGINE FULL) CHECK EVERY DAY TO BE SURE UNTIL ENGINE STOPS EATING COOLANT 50%AF
THE SIDE BOTTLE KEEP IT 1/2 FULL ALL THE TIMES, COLD. FILL IT NOW. KEEP IT THERE.
IT GOES HIGHER HOT, ALL DO. let it and be happy.
THE PUMP IS SUPER RELIABLE BUT NOT THE SILLY GASKET
AND WORSE THE PLACE IT LEAKS IS WHERE YOU CAN NOT SEE.
LOVES TO LEAK ONLY HOT AND MOVING, UNDER LOAD.

No visible leaks--- BUT--- you see some coolant
around the intake !!!!?
Your going to have to realize that the water pump
can leak,the intake may leak & a head gasket or
radiator,hoses, etc can leak
We can not do the checking & guessing for you
SOURCE: just replaced the water pump,
Check to see if the thermostat is installed correctly there is a certain way it goes the cooling system. Since you have had a lot of parts replaced could have air trapped in system this can cause overheating as well. Drain radiator leave cap of and start motor add water slowly until radiator is at the level recommended. Does car have white smoke comming out exhuast pipe this would be good indication of a blown head gasket. Hope this helps

YOUR RADIATOR HAS TRAPPED AIR IN IT AND NEEDS T BE "BURPED".

My Jeep doesn't go as fast as I think it can, I can only get it to 50 MPH. How do i fix this problem?

how often does the warning comes on doing the week or in two weeks? if it was a one time thing or this takes place every 3-5 months i wouldn't worry about it. i will make sure that the radiator cap is on tight. you said that all hose seem to be in good condition i would check the radiator where the cooling fan covers the fins and the water pump because it has a warn hole at the base that will seep out antifreeze when the inside seals are going bad these will cause the smell also.

It it happens when it is raining. This seems to be a common problem with Vehicles.
There is
a seal on the passenger side Hood Hinge area. If this seal is cracked
or broken or missing you will get water in the car every time it rains.
The water runs down the windshield in to the Hing area under the Hood.
You
may need to take the hood off to get to the seal. First pour water over
the area, if it comes in the car there is your problem.
You can seal it with any water proof silicone sealer .
