Hey guys!
Alright, so I change my oil today and before I did it I checked my other fluids. I opened my radiator cap and looked in... the fluid is brownish. My question is: Could this just be because the radiator fluid is to old? If not what else could the problem be? -Toni -------------------- |

Not necessarily. Was it green before? I used Dex-cool fluid for many years. It's orange and when slightly dirty it can look very much "brownish". I have also seen pink-looking fluid. You need to know how it looked when it was put in. Otherwise it means nothing.
