Hi guys.. 2013 ST. Has very slow coolent leak.
Always runs normal.. never has a temp rise.. sometime interior smell a little... Could it be a heater hose? Loose radiator hose clamp? Anyone ever hear of an ST with issues..... Mines 4yrs old.. not thrashed and only has 58000km

Interior smell - I'd be thinking the heater core.
The best way to tell is to use a cooling system pressure tester - see if it holds pressure - and if it doesn't - find the leak Small hand pump versions are available |

Ditto pressure test the cooling system , if the pressure drops you will have to find the leak, if you can't find a drip check the passenger side carpet to see if it is damp , if not you may have a very slight head issue, leaking internally
