Hi All
Drive 25 miles a day ? Radiator light comes on, I stop put water in reservoir tank.
Windows get a little foggy above dash vents. As if I put on the defrost, I have not. Every 2 - 3 days. Where's the water going?
198 K & overdue for timing belt, water pump etc. Please help me.
Thanks !
Jack

You have a significant leak in your heater core.
Search "heater core 2" on the site for a replacement walk-through.

Heater core without doubt. I put off changing mine for months but it turned out to be so easy I should have done it sooner. An hour or so of easy work. There is also a YouTube video walk-through by IPD that is very clear and straightforward.

Just got through replacing a heater core. Take off the lower dash panels and the black panels on the sides forward of the center console. Run the engine and see if you can find the leak. Their is a screw that holds the black block against the core itself. Check that it is tight
