Smell of coolant, but no leak.
I was having same thing. Hopefully I fixed it just replaced h2o pump, had been leaking drops forever but could never find it. Then slowly started hearing rattling noise and looked and saw distinct wobble of cooling fan where attaches to pump pulley. Check it out let me know. Good luck
Mine has been weeping out the front of the driver's side head for 2 years and almost 20k miles. I just check the coolant frequently and keep driving. Barrs leaks tablets stop the leak entirely, but require a yearly refresh. At this point, I'm probly just going to drive til it fails just to see how long it lasts.
My 01 with 85k has a distinct coolant smell when i turn it off after running for a while. It's not super strong. Kind of comes as a wiff when i open the door and get out, but after that I can't ever seem to find it. There are no visible leaks anywhere Houses for sale in Lebanon, no steam. The reservoir is a little low, but doesn't seem to be draining too fast.
Just wondering if there are some usual suspects to check out?
Do local car stores rent a pressure tester that fits these things?

After running the Rover, I can smell the very distinct odor of coolant outside the truck near the driver side engine compartment, with the hood closed. I checked coolant levels and it appears normal, the temp is fine, and I just drove it from Maryland to Orlando, FL and back with no overheating issues. There doesn't appear to be any leaks at all. Now, it has been a very hot summer here in Maryland, and I'm sure the A/C is working overtime, but for the life of me, I can't figure out where this coolant smell is coming from. Any ideas? 2007 Supercharged.
