Truck leaking yellow fluid

Lately whenever i come home after washing my truck the next day there is some thing yellowish leaking. Whenever i wash my truck i wash up under the the fender wells and sometimes it could possibly get through the cracks and into the engine a little bit, that is the only thing i can think of that could be causing this.


I just had the gaskets replaced too.

Only after washing? What gaskets were replaced and for what reason?
What year truck?

Some antifreeze is yellow. Later trucks have a pink/red antifreeze.

The valve cover gaskets were changed back last winter. It was leaking about the same just a little bit sometimes when it got real cold.

Got any ideas?

If you haven't found the problem. I would look carefully at all coolant fittings and
connections for signs of leaking. The fact it happens only when wash the truck is
confusing. Cannot think of anything that would leak only when washing the vehicle.

I noticed a pop-up stating some Toyoto mechanics were on line waiting on line
to answer questions. You may want to try them. Don't know if there is a charge
for their service.

Good luck.
