Coolant will be orange or green in color
Freon evaporates although if an AC leak a slick oil can appear

Testimonial: "yup its the freon im sure, lack of thr "flavor" of antifreeze, which i experianced with my chevy g20, and the light oily film, ac is warm"

    If the AC is not to be repaired or used the only way to get the oily mess cleaned up is to remove the evaporator case and cleaan out the inside of it or remove the evaporator core. I would use an engine cleaner or oven cleaner to clean away the oil and flush with water. Removing the core is the best way to do it and wipe away the mess

    the ac unit has all sort of fittings with o rings that seal the connection. Most people do not use ac in the cooler months so the seals will dry after a few years and tend to leak. Leak detectors can be used to find the leak or ac dye that is added into the liquid line which is the line you use to recharge the unit

Windshield fogs up on 2002 Volvo S60

Could be excessive water in the heater ac box. If it is oily, your heater core may be leaking.
When the ac is on you should see water dripping onto the ground under the passenger side floor.

Fumes escaping from ac vents inside vehicle while driving and leaves a film residue on inside of windshield whenever the heat or defrost are used.

Hello dedunwoodie.
Your heater core is beginning to leak coolant.
As the fan blows through it it is picking up the liquid and depositing it on your windshield.
It will need to be replaced to solve your problem.

My 94 gmc sierra has no heat, new heater core and blower works, also has new termostat...any suggestions?

You Might want to Check your Heater Control Valve,Its located under your Hood between 1 Heater Hose and your Water Pump.Its Vacum Operated and could be manual as well.Have someone turn your heat on and Off while you watch under the Hood at the Heater Control Valve to See if you see it Move.Or could have a Leak.More than Likely its Frozen Closed not allowing the Hot Water to Run Through Your Heater ore ,Which Results in No HOT AIR blowing inside. Try This 1st.

01 gmc truck 1500 2wd oder of antifreeze inside cab

the small radiator just inside the cab, where the hoses go to the heater is leaking. You may try using stop leak (many don't recommend this) or take off the heater radiator. it will probably get worse when you turn on the heater and fog up the windshield if not fixed. hope this helps.
