Lately on my 21 supra (10k miles) I am noticing a faint coolant smell when I walk past the front drivers side. Popped open the hood and couldn't find any traces of leaking coolant. Floor is clean as well. Noticed the smell is only coming from around the coolant reservoir.
Checked it (the one closest to the front of the car)and it was a little low. The secondary one was actually a little over max. Since I bought the car used a few months ago so I don't know what it was at before. The bleeder screw was replaced with a Ti one and when I checked the coolant, I didn't see any dried up coolant on the cap.
Does anyone have any ideas where I should be checking or if theres some kind of common places for coolant to leak? Since I can mainly smell it right over the res, I am assuming I should just order a new cap, but no signs of dried coolant makes me think it could be something else. I'd prefer not to take it to a dealer, but unless I can find it myself that's what I'm left with.
