2003 Pontiac Bonneville heater core replacement
Heater problem
2003 Pontiac Bonneville 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 59000 miles
Hi,
I have a 2003 Pontiac Bonneville 3.8L non supercharged engine. I have a coolant leak in my car that ends up in my floor board and i get a smell of coolant when i start my vehicle in the morning. I was wandering if the dash had to come out to do this repair and about how long it would take to do it. Is there anything else that needs purchased to complete this repair.
Thanks
Randy
