996 coolant burning smell and brake problems
Hi i have a 996 1999 with 40k miles. I have two problems with my Porsche and i thought i would post my problems before i take it into the dealership.
First, Every time i drive it i smell burning anti freeze yet my levels of anti freeze never reduces, or if it does, it reduces at a level in which i cannot detect. Also, I have no leaks under my car and i always check the fluid levels and it seems to be constant. Visual inspection of the hoses seem to be fine. No anti freeze is blowing out the exhaust either or from the coolant cap/ over flow hose.
Any ideas on what it could be and how i can check it?
My second problem is that the brake pedal is not releasing. I have to manually lift the pedal up with my foot. I thought it was the rear calipers but i replaced them and it slightly fixed the problem but now it takes 5 seconds for the brakes to release. I am thinking that its the master cylinder or the front brake calipers but i would hate to replace it if its not broken bc i just spent near a thousand replacing both rears.
Thanks much.
