Default !!WTF, Coolant in my INTERIOR

My car has been losing coolant and I couldn't find a leak untill I pulled up my passanger's side carpet and found small pools of coolant, it's almost soaked through the carpet now. I can't find where it is comming from, I am pretty sure it's the heater, but where?

Find your heater core and any hoses into and out of it, there lies the culprit.

:werd: That's the only place that coolant travels in the interior. You also might have a coolant leak in the engine bay and it's leaking down wires, but that's unlikely.

Is this happening in the 03? As everyone has already stated, sounds like the heater core... but odd that a heater core would go bad in an 03 w/ only 40k miles.

The heater core just went in my dads truck the other day and dumped coolant on the passenger side floorboard. But, uh, it's a 97 w/ 200k miles. Since he doesn't need the heater, we just cut the hoses and rerouted them back into the engine.
