2005 XC90 T6 white smoke at cold starts,sweet exhaust smells

Post by mainul18 »

Hi Folks:

It has been couple months MY 2005 XC 90 loosing coolant. After visiting local Volvo dealership they check, and suggest coolant pump leak.
1. Changed the water Pump
2. Cap of the collant reserver.
3. Timing Belt, pulley, trensioner, and serpentine belt.

I am having the same problem,
1.Still losing coolant,
2.white smoke at cold start.
3. Smell of the exhaust is sweet.
4. Can not drive more then 100 mile some times, the low coolant light will come up.
But,
1. No coolant in the Oil.
2. No oil in coolant reserver.


Many expert friends suggested Head gasket leak, are there any other reasons?
Your kind suggestion is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Main18
