    Mine is doing exactly the same thing...

    Before I did my cv axle boots last weekend, the truck sat for 2 weeks and everyday I would find a puddle of coolant underneath. Now that the cv axles are fixed, the leak has subsided significantly.

    I'll try posting pictures later today so you can see what the leak pattern is like (took some underneath the motor). Haven't started screwing with it yet...

    Also keep and eye on the coolant overflow/storage container on the drivers side inner fender well. Mark the level (a small sharpie Dot) and during routine drives compare the levels.

    this is a one-off, but freon dye is green in color too... is it coming from the area near the A/C compressor? This would only happen if you had A/C work recently and if the moon and Rylos 7 were in alignment...
    (I only bring it up because this happened, intentionally, while I was diagnosing my A/C leak)...
