Hi all,

After 4 years I'm coming back to Seat. I looked at a Leon FR+ supercopa 170 CR yesterday and noticed when I first started it up there was a very sweet smell seemingly from the exhaust, smelt alot like coolant, however zero smoke.

My first thought was headgasket but the lack of smoke has me confused, after the test drive I shut off the engine and started it again shortly after, no smell or smoke when warm

My heart really wants this car but my head's screaming headgasket, can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks in advance
