Thanks.
One quick question :

It produces quite a lot of heat, does that mean that the heater core is in working condition and not at fault and the coolant vapor are coming from some other leaking component (hoses, clamps, etc)?

I am not loosing any coolant as far as I can tell from the coolant reservoir... but I rarely use the heater.

Also the coolant vapors are only visible when I first turn on the heat, i.e. it seems to be happening only during the first minute or so, ten everything seems to be fine.

Thank you all.
