Maple Syrup smell when heat is on (Help Please)
Not sure if this is where to post this or not.
As the title says my heat smells like Maple syrup. (now wonder my kids were hungry on the ride home last night)
Does this mean that I have a leaking heater core? I checked my coolant and it does not look low but then again the smell just started last night.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I guess I will get my cd player so it will load a freakin CD and get my door drivers side door fixed so it will open with the key no just the fob while I am there.

Open the coolant cap under the hood (edit do it cold) and see if it smells the same also check under the passenger carpet for coolant
