2002 Cadillac SLS Repair Question
Asked on January 31, 2009
Cadillac SLS Hood Problem
Engine Cooling problem
2002 Cadillac SLS V8 Automatic 118000 miles
My check coolant level indicator came on and I refilled the resevoir last night. This morning I go about 5 miles and it came on again. When I got home and popped the hood it was smoking quite a bit. What could be wrong? When I'm driving, it smells like I'm burning syrup under the hood.

Get a cooling system pressure test, could be as simple as a leaky hose, or as complex as a blown head gasket...

Could the smell be from the coolant burning under the hood?
