it appears that the leak only occurs during cold temperatures at night, like last night it leaked again and pretty much all my coolant is gone..

Then it should be easy to determine the location. Tonight, wash the underbody where there is coolant, then dry it (with a cloth). Then tomorrow morning, get a flashlight and see where it is dry and where it has coolant. That should help you determine where it is leaking. As posted previously, it is probably a loose hose clamp, loose gasket at the WP (maybe need new screws and gasket) or a tiny hole on a hose. Good luck.

it might be a hit or miss type of thing. the mystique leaked the other winter, I believe two winters ago from around the thermostat housing to the block, didn't do it last year and haven't seen anything resently, but it was cold dependant
