Default Coolant level issue/question.

after engine running for a while, coolant level is close to MAX. Usually the following morning, it dips to LOW. Where have all my coolant gone?

Air in the system maybe? but engine is idling smoothly all day long.

I'd say as long as it's not above MAX when warm or below LOW when cold it's fine
