I CAN SMELL COOLANT WHILE SITTING IN THE CAR. I HAVE ALSO BEEN REPLACING A SMALL AMOUNT OF COOLANT EVERY TWO WEEKS OR SO. DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A BAD HEATER CORE?

    Pull up your driver's side floor mat.

    If it's wet there or there is a buddle of greenish yellow fluid underneath, it's likely the heater core. (Or the "O" rings.)
