Default Re: Boiling water sound under the hood dirvers side

Your car may have a seeping head gasket and/or a cracked cylinder head that is allowing antifreeze into the combustion chamber. At low speeds this would cause a misfire or your car to run rough. A slight amount of coolant in the combustion chamber at higher speeds would not be noticeable. You should have your engine checked for a leaking head gasket.

Yes, the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) should come on briefly when you turn the key on, but then go out.
