Default Missing antifreeze

After driving my car for about 30 minutes or so you start to smell antifreeze,sometimes stronger than others.One day I checked the bottle and it was low so I added some coolant.I hasn't been low again but you can still smell the antifreeze.I checked around the head and radiator but could find no leaks anywhere.Has anyone else come across this?

My antifreeze keeps getting low, but I see no sign of any leaks, no smell, and the oil looks perfect. No smoke screen from the exhaust either. Hopefully I can get ti to the dealership by the end of the week for a pressure test.

Mine did that not long after I bought it. Turned out to be a defective water pump. only time it leaked was right after I drove it. Look for antifreeze on the passenger side of the motor, down towards the bottom. you may find dried antifreeze on the axle, behind the fenderwell as well.

Wow, Wayne... me and kingj07 had similar problem with the coolant but it was are coolant hose to the turbo. Back at the beginning of this year... my coolant fluid would mysteriously get low. Turns out it was the coolant hose to the turbo... it leaked towards the back by the turbo and the flow/leak down to the back side of the tranny and oil cooler... onto the swaybar to the ground. The coolant fluid leak was small... it was like the size of a droplet on the ground, but everyday it would get bigger and bigger till it look like a small puddle on the pavement. My dealer fix it under warranty.

I am having the vanishing coolant problem. No smoke. No smell even. I am going to check those two places. I have checked the ground after leaving but never really see anything.
