WTF green brake fluid?

[swr42]

I forgot to mention in my previous post that while changing my brake pads I realized that my brake fluid was a bright green color like antifreeze. I always thought brake fluid was a golden color (my last car took DOT4, but I thought DOT3 was also goldish). Is the green a factory thing, or is really time for me to flush my brake fluid?

haven't ever noticed green fluid,possiby somebody put "dye" to try and find a leak?

hmmmm, thats a new one to me, brake fluid is not golden colored, its clear....with the SLIGHTEST hint of orange (as far as i know)....but i also think someone may have dyed it, or else someone put the wrong type of brake fluid in.....

I know the new fluid i used was brownish/goldish but very light and i could see through it pretty much. No idea why it would be green...
