Heater Core???
The other day my heat began to smell like radiator fluid. Then the next day steam was coming out of my vents. I was told that my heater core has probably sprung a leak. Is this true???
Thanks!
Thanks!

Yup. You have a few choices:
1. Save up about $800.00 and pay the dealer do it.
2. Save the $800.00 and do it your self. Takes all day.
3. Try some stop leak.
4. Cut the quick-disconnects of the heater core hoses on the engine side of the firewall and splice them together.

My buddy had his done and it cost him around 500.00 the dealer wanted a lot more. It takes a good 8 hours if you know what you are doing!
