Green fluid is definitely coolant. If you have a garage, park it in there overnight and see how much you're losing.

Even if it's a small leak, you want to find and fix it. Don't want it popping on you while you're in the middle of the highway somewhere.

good luck.

there's something known as a period. It's placed at the end of every sentence so that readers know when a sentence ends, and the next one begins. People use these "periods" so that one sentence does not explain the whole story, to make it easier for the people reading said document. Use them, or a pack of rabid SI owners will devour your ***** while your closest family and friends watch in horror. Have a nice day.

A. Always start a sentence with an Upper Case letter.
B. Please use conjunctions in your sentences after a comma.
C. Run on Sentence

Lesson 1 was learning to use the period, I figured if he was able to pick that up, then we could go from there.

As far as this seeming like english class: **** off. I had to sit through ****ing years of english classes, and i learned correct grammar. I also had through years of ****ing speech therapy, because i had a New York (proper nouns are capitalized) accent, i.e. "Let's go to da park, wawk da dawg, and drink some cawfee". I know the difference between your and you're and theres' and there's, unlike a lot of people. I think it's ****ing sad that the future of america can't spell or speak it's language right.

ahhh, **** it. just being stupid.

I also found a tiny bit of green fluid under my car, however I didn't do any towing. It was only like 4 or 5 small dots, but it still worries me slightly. I'll keep an eye on my coolant now. And I'll skip the English discussion.

Lets get back to the topic to help this poor guy! Anyways, I had the same problem today here in New Jersey. I got pounded with snow and while moving the car out of the driveway, I also noticed the snow had some green anti- freeze in it. I was told that its normal for the car to loose some every once and a while, espicially when its cold and ur starting it up from an usual cold spell. Hope this helps.

By the way, I hope this reply meets the requirments for everyone who has turned this post into a f***king English class.

Peace

okay, my time to apologize....had a seriously focked up day, and the whole english class thing just rubbed me the wrong way, i'm sorry to anyone who may've been offended, or who took it the wrong way. It was seriously off-topic, and it wasn't until reading the replies to the post that i realized the whole thing had been misunderstood. My stupid fault for not reading over what i wrote before i posted. The tone of the post wasn't to be yelling at people, it was just pointless ramblings from a disgruntled human.


Getting back on topic, I have something to contribute that may be of some help: My mom's sunbird was soing something similar to this, leaking just a little bit of coolant and all. There was a leak in the radiator, and it was dripping out a little at a time. It was basically a hairline crack in the radiator, and didn't leak enough so when a pressure test was done on the car, that it didn't show up.
