I am getting a slight anitfreeze odor occassionally while waiting at a stoplight. It's not constant, only a whiff from time to time.

There is NO indication under the hood or on the pavement of any coolant leaking however.

Any suggestions or ideas? Heater core???

Thx!

I have a slight smell after I shut mine off. We looked at it and I can see where antifreeze has been leaking onto the lower radiator hose, but no drips on the ground. Mine appears to be leaking from the Waterpump (there is a TSB on the shaft seal) or it may be leaking around the gasket on the thermostat housing. Look at those.

Good Luck!
