So, I'm probably just paranoid about this.
Sort life story of the car: bought it in decemeber with 97k on it. They original motor had been replaced by previous owner due to it locking up and the current motor is said to have the same mileage.
Needless to say, after I picked it up we had to do intakes that same week due to the low coolant light being on and a nice puddle by the LIM. So the gasket was changed with the "good gasket" and new elbows and a new t-stat.
The temperature stays constant at its happy place (it never gets hot) and the coolant light never comes on.
But when I get out of the car and walk past, I catch a faint wiff of coolant, almost like a hot engine smell mixed with a little coolant?
I just had the oil changed 2 week ago and it was clean. I just went out and checked the coolant levels and its full and no residue or water evap on inside of caps.
Also, there is no fogging happening on inside of windshield, so I'm pretty sure its not the heater core.
There are also no apparent leak spots under the car after it sits all day while I'm at work.
Am I just being to cautious and thats how they normally smell?
...please tell me my nose is crazy and I'm just smelling things...
