Re: Black slim in coolant reservior
this just happened to me, is your car overheating?
it could be oil, if that shows up in your radiator and reservior you may need a head gasket changed.
every since i changed mine, (its been 2 weeks) no overheating issues or oil in my coolant.

The coolant seems to still be good, the only thing is there like small specks of black stuff and the lining of the reservior is covered in like the black tar. My car deos not overheat nor does white smoke come out of the exhaust.
