Remember having to do this on the coupe before also.
Thanks for the tip! I did some web searching and read that you could try tightening the bolts. It is good to know it worked in your case. I will try that and be very gentle without putting too much force on it. I never noticed the smell before when I drove it everyday... so the leak must not be too bad.
