Just bought it...winter is approaching fast! Smells like coolant. windows fog up, and leaking on exterior of car right at the passanger side front wheel. 4.3L BTW. Thinking heater hoses, but also know that faulty heater core could be an issue but its not leaking inside? Would a coolant leak cause it to smell inside? Also thinking that maybe if the heater core isn't getting enough coolant it won't heat, but whats with the fog and stuff? Stumped!
It will be the heater core. If you can smell it inside the car and it's steaming up the windows the core will need to be replaced. Remove the heater core housing and check to make sure its leaking from the core itself. You might get lucky and have a leak from the hoses running to core instead. Hope that helped.
