I had another thread before the change over, but I cannot find it. Mods, if you find it I will gladly post in there.

Car has 135k miles on it. Bone stock. I've was for a while getting random whiffs of coolant while I was driving the car. I tend to smell it after I have been driving it and stop for a light or a sign. I have searched the car everywhere for a leak and have come up empty handed. There is no oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil. I have changed both to be sure of this.

The temp gauge has been sitting right where it needs to be and does not fluctuate.

Today I smelled for the first time in a few weeks and checked the level. It was at the lower fill level so I have to be losing it somewhere. Any help would be appreciated.

Pertinent info:
Water pump, thermo, and heater core changed at 115k

 

Forgot to add. Also changed the rad cap a few weeks back.

I'm starting a new job soon and don't want to have this car keeping me from going on my first few days.

Any input would be appreciated.

i think thats your old thread if you're still looking for it.

 

Thanks man. I'm still stumped by this issue. I guess I'll just keep driving it until it gets worse

there is a bolt on the houseing of you upper radiator hose thatis conesed to the block that bolt could be warped or the housing itself can b cracked

 

Please explain a little better. I don't fully understand where your talking about.

There are no visible leaks, but a crack somewhere is not out of the question.

Well I guess I'll keep this as a running log so I know when certain **** happens...

Check the level again today, and it's now got just a little bit lower than the full line. Last time I added was on 11/18/08 and I added to just above the full line.
