Jrock98 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Hey to all, new guy here, got a 99 Accord V6, I'm getting the smell of antifreeze from my vents when running A.C. The heater works fine, there's no interior leaks, can it be a blown head gadget? Responses greatly appreciated, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Pinhole leak in the heater core. There's lots of bad head gasket symptoms, smelling coolant is low on the list.

Jrock98 Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 Thanks for response. If it is a pinhole leak, then ultimately the core needs replacement ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Sure. I wouldn't do anything unless I was sure cause to get it out the dash has to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
