Some Dodge Ram 1500 owners report experiencing yellowish fluid leaks after an oil leak repair, which may indicate a coolant leak. This yellowish fluid could be coolant, especially if it has a neon color, suggesting it is leaking from the engine. Additionally, some owners find that heater hoses may also be a potential source of this leak. Another possibility is that the oil cooler assembly could be leaking; owners are advised to shine a bright flashlight beside the oil filter housing to check for oil pooling in that area. It is crucial for owners to inspect these components thoroughly to identify the exact source of the yellowish fluid leak following an oil leak repair.
