recently my coolant light turned on on my dash, so i filled it back up and within the day the coolant was back at empty. i checked all the hoses and found no leaks or puddles under my car, i have not smelled anti freeze and now when i drive my engine temp gets to the red within 5 minutes of driving. what is wrong?!

I would first check for water in the oil. It will be milky if there is. If there is it's a blown head gasket.
