    I just did a coolant pressure test on 07 astra 1.4.

    I seem to keep refilling it twice a week. The pressure held in the test, with no sign of leaks. I get a sweet smell after driving

    Where is going??

    Id put my money on the coolant housing on the passenger side.

    Thats what usually what leaks on them. Used to sell a fair few of them when I worked with Opel.

    Or the water pump, they are always leaking and not always super obvious
