Very confident my heater core went out in my 08 Pontiac g6. I have no heat, smell coolant in the vents and I'm losing small amount of coolant everyday. I need step by step instructions on how to remove the heater core. I've already started on disassembling the dash but I am unsure where to go from there. Thanks!

Removing heater core do you have to take the whole dash out?

Yes, the dash as well as the center console have to be removed and air conditioner charge has to be evacuated as well.
