I have a slight coolant loss. I top off the overflow container every few hundred miles. Car heats up normally, maintains steady temperature (torque app confirmed). No visible leaks, no steam, no drips, or puddling. Upper and lower radiator hoses are newer. Cap is good. No coolant in the oil or trans. Spark plugs look normal. I notice that at start up, if I have the fan on and windows closed, I can detect a slight sweet smell, chemically sweet like coolant. What could use me smelling coolant inside the cabin, but not visible leakage on the outside?
