My '14 CTT likely has the common coolant leak under the intake manifold. I can smell coolant burning after a drive but no coolant leaks noticeable anywhere, and my shop pressurized the system and found it doesn't hold pressure completely. So, we'll be pulling the intake manifold off and investigating.

While we have that off, is there anything else I should have them replace? I can't think of anything, but wanted to check. Car has 65k miles.

Intake manifuld gaskets, air oil thingy gaskets and the ever so important carbon clean.

If it turns out not to be the vent line, then I would change vent line also because it will eventually go.

At this age, on a CTT, the most common leaks needing to be addressed are the vent line ranking as the most common, the o-ring that seals the main hose that comes out of the bottom of the coolant reservoir ranks at #2, and in the #3 ranking are the alternator feed lines.

If the starter has been doused in coolant, I would replace that also as it will fail
