may have actually done more damage than good
it stops leaks, but will also block up the small passages that do the cooling in the radiator

Haven't had a chance to get the car to the workshop yet...
BUT When i floor it and drive it hard i can smell "Coolant" but when i drive it "soft" or at least... softer, then normal it bearly uses any water and doesn't smell. So my guess is... it leaks under pressure. But where? My thinking is Somewhere near The air intake(For heating and aircon, from outside) Or... Heating Core? Any ideas???

or go to a radiator place and get a pressure check done and keep your eyes peeled. they should do it for free, and then you can figure out whats going on and fix it yourself
