Ask Smithy Xtra Commodore excess water use

My 2000 Holden Commodore uses a lot of water, but there are no obvious leaks from the radiator, there?s no water in oil, no residue on the ground when the car is standing, and the temp stays just below half. Any suggestions?

Have a mechanic do a leak check on the head gasket to see if it isn’t leaking there.
