This is winter in Tn. with heater working there is a faint smell of antifreeze inside the car. my car is a 2012 M37s. I see on many post the mileage of the vehicles, which is another question for a later time that I would like to pose, sense this is a high mileage car that has had only dealer attention from new, which I purchased used.
I am new to this club, after searching the web, this seemed to be the very best one.
Thanks

If you only get the smell inside the car, it is likely that you have a small leak in the heater core.
