  • Antifreeze smell

    Sometime after I drive I can smell Antifreeze, I have looked all under the hood and can't find no leak, and level of the coolent seems good. I am just wondering if maybe I am missing a leak or if I smell it sometimes that is nomal.

    Thanks

      I had a leak that I could only smell intermittently and couldn't find the leak. Well I finally figured out it was the water pump seeping and since it was dripping near the serpentine belt it was not puddling anywhere except a little between the harmonic balancer and the block.

        it is your water pump, you wont see a leak but take it to have it checked. Water pumps always go out for some reason.
