Just chiming in on this thread to state I noticed some coolant smell recently.
Coolant overflow tank was empty. Last service at 21k, assuming they'd fill it, currently at 27k miles. Coolant level in engine was good, added like a tablespoon or two of antifreeze, showed up in fill spout, good sign. If I'm leaning low or have a slow leak, I caught it early. Might just be running on original OEM fill and never been addressed by dealer, not sure. All dealer service thus far. Been smelling antifreeze for a week or two. No drips in driveway.
Never a temp issue, just keyed on the smell. Filled to max level on overflow tank, now I'll keep an eye on it.
Checked oil fill cap, no signs whatsoever of water in system, will keep tabs on it and chime back in a week or two. If I continue to lose fluid, I'll take to dealer once I'm half way through my gallon of existing blue fluid I just bought.
May be nothing, but I do smell antifreeze on startup once in a while.
