Upside down is bad & will force the engine to overheat.
If you are not loosing or displacing any coolant - that's good.
Here are some possibilities.
The fan clutch is getting weak.
Trash (leaves) blocking the narrow gap between the oil cooler & the Rad.
Missing fan shroud, or lower or upper plastic shields in front of the Rad.
In my case, it's a bad internal coolant seal..
