Best Answer

most likely there's a leak in your heat exchanger (heater core).

I took my new sportage to the dealer...The smell goes away when using max ac or recirculate...They inspected, pressure tested and found nothing. I believe the reservoir belches fumes and the air intake comes in from the wiper blade area...I am monitoring the reservoir level.
