Welcome to Azine.

So you have no external coolant leaks but the coolant level keeps going down? We need some more info.

1. Why did you change the radiator and tstat in the first place?
2. did you burp the coolant system after installing the new radiator?
3. has the engine oil level changed at all and is the oil milky at all?
4. is there any smoke coming from the exhaust?
5. how much coolant did you put in after the radiator change and how much have you added since then?
