little outside of honda... but my gf's 2002 sunfire is leaking a bright yellow fluid (seen it in the snow today)... not exactly sure what it is.... smelled it.... doesn't really smell like anything.... thinking it may be radiator fluid.... any thoughts.... thanks

yah it is coolant .where is the leak coming from

 

yellow snow huh....

 

Sure your dog didnt pee there lol jk. Sounds like maybe some spilled from the over flow tank well that would be your best answer, worse could need a Radiator hope its all good

 

I actually found out what it is.... it also happened to my mother's car, 2001 Malibu, like two hours later.... I thought this was too much of a coincidence and I asked my dad if he knew what it was.... he said it comes from the catalytic converter.... and sure enough.... in both cars the yellow snow was right above the cat and actually outline the exhaust piping a bit.... must have been running down the exhaust and dripping.... not exactly sure what it is that cat mixes with to make yellow snow.... but I guess it does.... who knew
