This is due to the Cooling system of the Car. Since I still have to add a good bit a water...:P

Status: offline 		I believe so too...I pulled the carpet on the passanger side and it was soaking wet. I also touch the tunnel and it was wet. So I think that is it. I just called Advance Auto Parts and order one for 57 Bucks from Rad-Flow. How hard is it to remove the Heater Core?

Thanks
Anthony

before you replace the heater core make EXTRA sure that is what is leaking ,, cause,, it is NOT an easy job to replace it ,, the complete dash has to come off ,, I would suggest you buy an HELM book if you plan on doing it yourself ,, or download an online manual with all the details ..

That is the only thing that can leak inside the Honda unless Im mistaking.. I have the Haynes Manual and it looks pretty simple. Just wanted to be prepare for the removal and install..

Thanks
Anthony

Status: offline 		Heater core would be the only place for antifreeze to come from, & get under the carpeting.  Are you sure it's antifreeze?  By the smell?

It seems to me that if the heater core were leaking, it would fog up the windows something fierce.

Like desert says, it's a big job.  Make sure that's really the problem.

Well, Before I start putting water instead. I have a Blue Spots on the carpet. So yes, 95% sure of it. I always drive with the windows down. Plus A/c dont work no more (need to fix)..:(
