That's great that they overnighted the part in!

if i got up on a stool and looked down onto the to of the motor, right below the throttle body i could see the reminance of coolant. i looked couple of times and missed it.
i guess i will have to do the same, thanks.

I look there too tomarrow, thanks
Check for a leak just below the copper coupling. See photo. I found this leak but it didn't care of the coolant smell. I only notice my coolant smell when using defrost.

I dont smell it inside at all just outside sometimes
well i am due for my first oil change so i guess i will have them check to see what the deal is, might as well use that good old warranty i guess.
in las vegas, not surprised

That may be a problem on your truck but, it won't kill the coolant smell altogether. You'll probably always get a little coolant smell after a trip or towing if you get out of the truck and walk to the front. My truck has been in 4 times to find the source but they can never find anything....and I lose no coolant! Strange!
had the same thing happen to my truck at 30,000 miles.
Irony= I just posted above and just checked my truck. The radiator cap is AGAIN spewing coolant onto the engine cover!

I got mine replaced several months after I got the truck. No problems yet. :)

The one in the truck now is the 3rd! I guess I'll be looking at number 4. I can't wait until they tell me it's not covered because I have 37k on the truck. There'll be a mushroom cloud over that dealership! Look for it on the news!
