Attempted field service mode, different results.....

dude, maybe im just really stupid (probably am) but i did what you guys said to do, which was to jump the a and b terminal on the ALDL while the engine was running, and as soon as i did that my car made a funny noise and then smoke was coming out of the cowl on my hood. I popped the hood and there was coolant on the valve cover. i dont know where this coolant came from, but it went away quickly. Since then i havent seen any problems, but it just bothered me. Anyone have any idea as to what just happened? thanks

LG4's dont have field service mode, which is why the car was acting funny. I wouldnt try that again if I were you.

Dunno about the coolant leak. Coincidental freak occurence?
