My buddy has an 05 Trailblazer LS, it smells like burning or boiling coolant. Or like coolant is leaking onto something hot.
I got under it and only see/smell water dripping after its been running and parked. Was told to "taste" the water to make sure its not coolant, if coolant it should taste sweet. Didnt really taste sweet lol.
Anyways, also was told it could be heater core or hose leak. Anything similar happen to anyone here? Truck has about 85k miles. Just started smelling yesterday, no high temps on dash. Smells and then it doesnt, etc.
Any help appreciated.
