Smells problem
1998 Saab 900 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 157K miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
Last night my car started hard, but it did start and I smelled a faint rubber smell while driving (only two miles to get home from work). Later, I took it out, it started fine and then my battery light went on and I lost my power steering. It seems my heater is working. When I turned it off, there was alot of steam from under the hood. I let it cool off and about an hour later, I restarted it with no problem, lifted the hood and saw my coolant was very low. I refilled it, but the battery light is still onl I have been dealing with a coolant leak for a while (replaced some hose and checked radiator which seems okay). I also had the sepentine belt replaced recently. I should also add that we are experiencing record cold temps in this area. Any ideas?
