RE: green fluid?
alright, I took the car to the local mechanic and apparently my oil filter was loose (dont know how i missed that). There was oil on the filter and on the sway bar and such, and he says that is where the fluid came from. Didn't think oil was neon green? I will still keep an eye out to see if it is still leakin, thanks!

This is exactly why I don't go to dealers unless I absolutely have to. You take the car in to fix an OBVIOUS cooling system leak (hence the GREEN fluid) and all he comes up with is a loose oil filter [:@] Come on!!!!

RE: green fluid?
funny thing is, ever since i got the oil filter tightened on the car it hasn't leaked on the ground anymore. The whole undercarriage of the car is clean again, so the oil running on the sway bar and hittin the snow on the ground must have caused a chemical reaction or something. But, the problem is good for now.
