Engine Cooling problem
2000 Pontiac Sunfire 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

There is a green fluid around the water pump. The antifreeze is pink. What could it be? I had the A/C serviced 6 months ago and I just started to get this green dripping onto my driveway.

Has to be coolant. Did the A/C shop flush the coolant system? If not, and they just added pink coolant to the green or yellow coolant then it is going to look green.

I suggest having your water pump replaced before it completely gives out and overheats the vehicle.
