heater core?

[CMURDAx]

so i replaced my radiator on tuesday night due to my old one rusting out. we did everything to it make it work. so today i go to get a hoodie from my car at work and it was on the front passenger side. i noticed my hoodie was DRENCHED, i smelled it and it smelled like a hint of antifreeze. i looked over and everyhting including the carpet is just soaked. i had my climate control on high today and didnt notice it. but my dad sayd he thinks my heater core went out? could this be why theres about a 1/3 gallon of antifreeze in my front floor?

'Bout the only way for it to get there. I'm going to assume it was the orange Dex crap in the system. It seems to get acidic with age, and probably ate the aluminum in both the radiator and the heater core. Flush it out. Go Green.

+1 .............if you are sure it was antifreeze. If it is just water, and it was raining out recently you may have the infamous leaking cowl issue......

I thought it was maybe from rain but it hasn't rained in like a week.
