Have you checked your coolant? I'm thinking you sprung a leak with the cold temperatures and is running along the under carriage and just appears to be coming from the back...check your coolant level.

I don't know. I saw some that looked like it dripped from my engine area. Bright yellow like a fluorescent or safety yellow. -- The only thing I did recently was to lubricate the manual transmission shift linkage. One other person saw a similar dropping. If you find out what it was, report back.

This fluid may be radiator coolant or antifreeze leaking from the cooling system. If you notice even a moderate amount of fluid, have the radiator level checked immediately.

Suffer oxide, a by product of normal combustion.

Sulpher Dioxide, and she did not say it was coming out of the tailpipe. Seriously you've ever seen yellow smoke? what are we burning car batteries now?
mrmoony answered 2 months ago
I said sulfer oxide not dioxide. The muffler probably has a weep hole in it that juice can come out too. I've never seen yellow anti freeze but sulfer oxide is yellow and also a by product off combustion. Google it if you don't believe me. It is in ALL petroleum. My theory is just that, like yours, just a theory.
mrmoony answered 2 months ago
Your assuming it's anti freeze (which it could be). Might be dog piss for all you know.
judge_roy answered 2 months ago
yeah, I kinda wondered about that. Put this one up on a lift, and you'd instantly know-

I'm so confused that I've forgotten the question. Just a sec while I scroll up. Brb
munron answered 2 months ago
Oh yeah. I remember now. I think you nailed it Bob. I'm thinking though that it is somehow getting into the exhaust system and then draining out through a weep hole in the muffler or catalytic converter. And yes, it would of course be yellow because that's the color that GM's Dex-cool is.
Jean answered about a month ago
gm dex cool is red and it was sulpher oxide i asked a the dealership when i had my oil changed
munron answered about a month ago
I don't think so. Dexcool is maybe more orange than yellow, but it would be a stretch to call it red. However since that doesn't seem to be your problem anyway I guess its all good.
