Anti-freeze odor in cabin, AC noise, remote keyless entry trouble, rattles S70

I have a 1998 S-70 T5 and I'm getting a strong antifreeze odor with some vapor appearing on the lower left corner of the windshield. It doesn't really clear much, if at all, when I turn on the defroster/AC. Any chance this is something besides the heater core? Anything I can try before replacing something?

Also I hear a low "growling/grinding" noise when the AC compresor comes on. I checked with the hood up and that's where it's coming from. What's the most likely problem and fix there?

My remote keyless does not work. I replaced the 2016 battery and still no go. Does it need to be re-programmed or is it toast?

When I accellerate I hear a vibration coming from the dash from just above idle and goes away shortly after that. When I reach about 10mPH it goes away. Any easy places to check?

I guess I saved all this stuff up before asking......

Thanks!!!

Gary
