I forgot, did you check all vents on mains, radiators and risers. It is surprising how much water they will lose. When they get hot they should be shut tight. And follow all pipes to make sure that none go out of sight before they go up. You can't rule out 100% a leak upstairs that is running to where you don't see it but the usual is in the boiler and wet returns. Does the returns go underground (or out of sight) anywhere?
