Sniffing Anti Freeze



Greetings;
I can smell a/f after a run when the temperature has come up to operating 
temp. I can smell it while stopped at lights and the fan is on.
When parked in the garage it reeks especially around the rad side.
 My 4000q A/F level drops about .5 of litre of in a year. 
I have checked all hoses and been all over the rad. Is my car toying with
me so I spend more time with it or is it a rad on the verge ?  The odor is a  
drag but I don't want the rad to expire on the highway.  

Does anyone have any previous experience with this ? My ole VW GTI used
to use the amount fluid also so I not too concerned.
