I smell a little antifreeze on the driver side after a 10-15 min. drive. I dont notice any leaks and the overflow does not appear to be running low. :Bang anybody have this problem?

I did years ago and it turned out to be a hose that had a sharp, 90 degree, bend in it. It was replaced under warranty.

are you seeing anything on the ground?

there is a bleeder valve just to the right of the reservoir tank.

I would put the fron of the car on jack stands, remove the plastic shield from the front bottom of the car, drain the cooling system, remove the air tube to the throttle body. The hose is right there center of the engine. You will have to remove and replace but it will require access to the bottom of the car which is why I suggest using jack stands because you will need to work from under the car as well.

As far as getting the part; PM or email 5 star, the contact info is in my signature below, and give them the part number. Ask for Max.
