Default Leaking Greenish fluid????

I have discovered a small amount of greenish fluid on my garage floor from the rear end of my 2000 C5.

What is it?

Thanks,

Richard

Greenish fluid? Better consult Scully and Mulder, sounds like an X-File! :lol:

It will probably be differential fluid. It could be coming from the vent on top, or from the drain plug. They have had some problems with those. Time to crawl underneath and see what's leaking. Hopefully it will be a simple fix.

Thanks everyone:

By the way Big Dave, I called Scully, he told me not to ever drink anything green?
