[QUOTE="csamuels, post: 659939, member: 59485"] OK, here’s the request…….. I am beginning to smell coolant on the left side of my ST. (usually when I get out, or have the window down) The smell is not inside so I have dismissed a heater core. I see no signs of leaking coolant on the ground, although the coolant level was low (about a quart) in the radiator. All hose connections are dry. Granted the truck has 135K and I have purchased ALL new hoses just in case there is a pinhole leak in one of the hose. (hope to complete this next weekend) Just wanted to check and see if anyone has had any similar experience. The last time I experienced a similar smell on another vehicle it had a head gasket leaking. This ST has never run hot so I am hoping this is not the case….suggestions??? [/QUOTE]
