Talking NEED HELP? & u get $50

My car is leaking antifreeze, I forst thought it was the radiator, so repalced it, plus it was cheap only $180, new with lifetime warranty, I also bought the new radiator hose that goes from the engine to the radiator. The problem was fixed, on monday morning as I am getting ready to get to the car I noticed a puddle of antifreeze, i though it was from the old one , so i went to work and when i got out there was a large puddle, i checked the hood and the antifreeze from the pump was all gone, so i pour more and as im driving to get home,I noticed smoke was coming out so I pull over and i get out "i automatically thought my water pump broke, so i open the hood and no smoke came out!" and i still had antifreeze, so i get back in my car and drive off as im driving i see smoke again , i stop and get out to see that the car was smoking from the passingers side at the BOTTOM!! I got home parked the car and smoke was coming out of the vents,, but I never turned on my heater (plus the car is parked and turned OFF!!) PLEASE, HELP ME TO FIGURE OUT WHAT' S WRONG WITH MY CAR???? I AM WILLING TO PAY $50 THANKS EMIAL@ [email protected] with ur info.

Have you checked the heater core hoses for leaks and or the heater core itself for a cracked tubing that protrudes into the engine compartment?

Steam out the vents definitely sounds like a heater core like to me too. Depending on the year of your car it could be a very easy fix. If it's a 77-90 the heater core is located under the hood and cam be replaced in about 30 minutes.

leak

ya if you have been smelling a real sweet smell or a hasing on the front window this defantly sounds like a heater core problem. This is not a hard fix just a time consuming most likely being inside your dash. keep us posted

If The Windows Instantly Fog When You Turn On The Def. You Mightneed A Heater Core 90 And Back Take Off The Black Plastic
Cover On The Right Side Of Fire Wall Be Carefull May Crack Easy When Removing Look Inside For Coolant At The Bottom If So Replace The Core.
