with that kind of mileage it is surely the coolant bypass valve. the coolant drips on the exhaust and cat and evaporates, so often you get no puddle on the ground and no indication. Any time after 60,000 miles the valve is on borrowed time.
some people replace just as preventive maintenance because it is so common. You can also get by-pass hoses from eEuroparts to get rid of the valve.
Do a search here....lots of info on this valve.
