I have the same issue. I can literally smell the coolant when the engine is hot like on a summer day, and both fans are running. It stinks! Yet... my dealer was not able to find a leak nor were they able to smell it. I am perplexed.

The odor of coolant in the passenger compartment, most noticeable when the HVAC is operating, particularly in one of the heating and/or defroster modes, is a classic symptom of a leaking heater core (and sometimes it is a hose attaching to the heater core).

Thank you. Yes I get that but I do not smell it when they HVAC is on. I will smell it especially during the hot summer months and only when my AC went out (warranty fixed). It was at that time that I discovered it. Funny thing was, my wife pulled next to me one day, while my AC worked, and I smelled the coolant on a hot summer day. I told her that she has a coolant leak thinking how on earth could mine have one already. Turns out, the jokes on me.

One day i'll just simply pull the bottom panels off and look for myself.
