car is in tip top shape...everything works...looks and drives like a 2
year old volvo.....a slight,faint.sweet smell of antifreeze is evident
on occasion inside the vehicle...120,000 miles....no visible dampness
and level down maybe 1 1/2 pts over a  years' time.......don't have a
pressure tester....any likely places to look?  any"these always leak at
those miles"?

i know more than a few have probably discovered the probable fix!

My car (850) has the same symptons....Coolant level drops slowly and can
find no sign of a leak anywhere, I have heard that the heater matrix fails,
hence the smell inside the car. So like euro93 I'd like to know where to
look.

ttfn....Alistair
