Had u tried to run the heater full blast while you give the car a gOod run on the freeway? Could have an air pocket that's migrated.
Also not sure if this helps, but I had nearly the same issue only after I'd replaced the preformed rubber hose that connects to that egr looking thing above the turbo... I had to drive around with a bottle of water and run the heater for a 15 minutes multiple times within a week till the coolant levels stabilized.
I had to add more coolant once the first time the entire reservoir was emptied and then twice more It sucked up half the coolant. Since that I haven't had anymore boiling over or coolant loss.
I also had no overheating issues through the whole ordeal.

The heater is "ON" and has coolant running through all the time. Air should come out over the course of a few hours at most. Keep checking it tho , i had a top hose crack at the radiator plastic nozzle,lost a little there , also i think my oil cooler lines in the radiator are leaking /damaged due to previous owner having a crash and not fixing , there is oil in coolant but no HG leak can be found.........
