Hey guys, quick question for ya:


I had come back from the beach earlier and was spraying off underneath my truck to remove sand as usual, when I noticed a green colored fluid dripping from where the transmission case is. It would only drip when I sprayed water up into that area. I'm not sure what it is or why green fluid would drip from that particular area. Also, it had no smell and wasn't oily at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for your help!

 

Well, a good first step is to check all your fluid's to see if any are low.

 

Oh, I forgot to say that I did, and they all seem fine.

This has me a bit baffled.

 

sounds to me like maybe there is just something up there that is turning the water green... maybe some mold or mildew? Or something that you picked up driving? Just a thought

Other than that, the only fluid I know that is green is radiator fluid.

 

And washer fluid too...

Sometimes in my old car i had a bad angle to add washer fluid and i would spill it all over and some would end up over the tranny. When i would clean the engine it would come out green when i washed in that area. Just a thought.

 

Interesting.... I'll go check the washer fluid in a bit and post what I find.

 

Coolant on an '04+ F150 should be gold, not green. The only thing green I can think of is A/C leak detection dye.

 

OH MY GOD GET AWAY FROM IT QUICK, IT'S GONNA BLOW UP!!! j/k get a creeper and check out the area.

 

Mine is green and I have never touched it except for adding a little during the blower install.

 

Someone's changed it. Green coolant was slowly phased out of use starting in mid 2002 or so.
