Description of the problem	When starting my 2004 chevrolet aveo after it warmed up and sat for roughly 5 minutes it will not always start on first turn of key. Occasionally, rough idling on cold start, coolant smell coming from heating vents only when heat was on, a light blue/green residue/powder has been found on all four vents. At 5600 miles coolant level at 1/2 factory level, and traces of coolant were found on 2 of 4 spark plugs by independent mechanic. Coolant fumes are noxious, and it seemed i had a cold i couldn't get rid of all winter. As of 4/13/2005 the vehicle has been to 2 different chevrolet dealerships 4 times,. 3 times at dealership of purchase, and 1 time at another dealership. Nothing could be duplicated, and car was checked out. Everything was okay this time. Dealerships checked spark plugs, did pressure tests, and scanned for codes. At this point the second dealership was looking into the residue/powder. *ak
