Antifreeze behind front valve covers

I changed my valve cover gaskets today and found some antifreeze in the valley behind the valve covers. Does anyone have any idea of where it may have come from and what the problem might be?

Re: Frost on the inside?

It is interesting that you mention a sweet smell because I have been noticing a smell coming through the vents. I don't know if I would call it sweet though. Pardon the reference, but it smells kind of like cat pee. I have just noticed it recently concurrently with the frost issue. I do have a ...

Re: Frost on the inside?

@ken_w This is the first winter it has done this. I live in the North Cental part of Indiana. What doesn't make sense to me is that I have noticed water on the drivers side in the front and back for a while but never had frost on the inside like this. Do you believe that this means it is getting ...

It is a 2003 bonneville SSEI. Sorry that I neglected to input that information.

Frost on the inside?

I have had a lot of frost on the inside of my windows this winter. Can anyone tell me if this is indicative of the windows leaking or another issue? There is a lot on the front windshield and some on the side windows. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: 2003 Exhaust Smell

Awesome! There hasn't been any oil on the pavement but I have noticed oil around the valve cover. Is that still indicative of a valve cover gasket issue?

Thanks!

2003 Exhaust Smell

I have recently noticed an exhaust smell in the cabin while the car is idling. I let it run about 10 minutes this morning, smelled the exhaust again, and popped the hood. I noticed a thin trail of smoke coming from the front of the engine, directly behind the oil level indicator. Does anyone know ...

Re: Exhaust Manifold Gasket??

Thanks for the tip. I will check it out. Would that also account for the ticking noise?

I have searched through the forums and could not find a definite answer to this question. If there is already a forum on this topic I apologize in advance.

I have a 2003 Bonneville SSEi. We recently noticed a strong exhaust smell in the cabin compartment when the car was idling. When are driving we ...
