Last night I ran some errands while dropping the better half off to see our granddaughter and came back home, all was fine. Three hours later I returned to the truck to go pick the better half up and I smelled antifreeze in the truck. The weather has been perfect for the last three days so I have not used the AC or Heat. Before that was only using the AC. It was now cool outside and needed to use the Defrost to defog the windshield. Hot air comes out the vents but the windshield will not completely clear and the smell of antifreeze is stronger. No mist, no fog, no stream from any vents. The level in the overflow reservoir has not changed, it is where it was Sunday when I previously checked it. When raising the hood, I see no steam or any leaks. There are no leaks or spots under the truck when its parked. Something happened 2 years ago while the AC was running and they replaced something under the inside dash, don't know if it was the heater core but I think it was something AC related maybe the exchanger. The smell does seem to come on stringer after the truck gets up to temperature, does that point to a pressure issue?
It is now 70 outside so I switched over to AC and the vents blow cold with no fog, steam, or mist. There is a light odor of antifreeze, much less then when no AC or Heat settings is selected.
Ideas, thoughts, suggestion, things to test or try?
