SG_EP91 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Ok hey lads been awhile since i was on this but got the worst prob here wif my N/A EP91...Ok well it started when i got a really weird kinda ginger like/vanilla/i duno how to describe the smell coming through my car once i put the heater on one day..So i took out the pollen filter and well seemed like it fixed the prob for awhile(well a couple of days) but now the smell is horrible.. Then tonight as i was on my way home and decided to put on the blower/de-mister for the front window smoke started coming up through the vents infront of the window vents on the inside..I checked under my passenger glove box and found like a browny clear liquid dripping down to the left of the pollen filter replacement compartment..I then checked my radiator and the bottle is half full and a healthy looking green coolant/water mixture is in that but there is nothing inside the little cap ontop of the radiator????Really need help!!!!!!!!

turbo Grant Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Sounds like your heater matrix is leaking. Not sure what they are like to do on a ep91 I no the GT is a bit of a pain. You can always join the two heater pipes together that go onto the bulk head. That will bypass the heater. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SG_EP91 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 wheres the pollen filter as sometimes i have a weird smell to ?It's just under the glove box to the right a small bit.. It's like a large black box thingy and doesn't really look like its doing much but if you lay down and look under it you'll see i think its 2 black kinda thick pins at the front and one behind like a thin long rectangle door/cover.. you just pull the pin thingys out and pry the rectangle cover down and feel up inside the hole and there should be 2 pollen filters inside their so just a bit of wriggling and they should come out one after the other.. hope this helps but its really hard to explain :harhar: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 If you have the Starlet handbook that came with the car, it says there under maintenance I think, under 'air-conditioning filter' or something similar (even though there is no true A/C system in the car :harhar: ). If you dont, I can get it scanned in for you tomorrow, but its a simple enough job to figure out when you're looking at it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
