Welcome back,
When checking, look for rust and black carbon marks anywhere on the system. Black carbon commonly indicates a leak. The vehicle is new enough that I doubt there are body rust issues. However, inspect the floor under the vehicle for holes and make sure there is nothing damaged or preventing all weather molding on the doors. Also, if you notice the smell more when the heater or AC is on, suspect a leak under the hood.
One last thing. Not all exhaust leaks are loud. Often times, if there is a leak at one of the exhaust manifolds, it sounds like a ticking that may be noticeable when cold and go away when hot.
Let me know if you have any questions, and Happy Thanksgiving.
Take care,
Joe
