Antifreeze oozing pink powder from filler neck PICS - Toyota Yaris Forums

Anybody got this going on yet?????

This little car is full of surprises!

Dried antifreeze. I wouldn't worry about such a small amount. Put a hose clamp on that sucker and it should stop oozing.

pull it apart, clean it, hose clamp it.

or, replace it

Wifes 05 Camry does it too.

Actually, all glycol based antifreeze will seep out like that.

The hose picture is only a overflow hose and it is not sealed.
It's nothing to worry about.

My only concern is to make shure it is not leaking out from under the cap.

maybe you should get the cap replaced under warranty . Could be defective .
