Hmm, been having an odd problem of late. I've always got an odd whiff of coolant when the car is first started (or re-started) but have been putting that down to a slight coolant leak from the expansion bottle. The missus has been saying that recently the smell has been getting worse and the windscreen steams up when the heaters on. 'Heater matrix' I hear you all cry (as I did !) but I've just had the side covers off and there isn't any trace of a leak. I've even cracked open the bottom of the matrix and still no signs of coolant (all this with the motor running and heater on full blast). I use the red type of coolant in my T5 so any leaks show up quite easily (goes pink and furry). Any ideas ?, I'm wondering whether the pollen filter could be sodden and causing the misting.
