Yes... Another Brown Coolant Thread...

I have searched and read every thread related to this, but there still doesn't seem to be a reason. I have a MC not a MCS.

Why is my coolant Brown?
Why does it mysteriously disappear?
What is that brown crud at the bottom of the tank?
How come Americans can't figure out a round-about?

Yep, mines brown too. Someone freaked me out when he saw it and said something was wrong with my car. I didn't realize I had brown coolant until he pointed this out, then I talked to other MC Owners and found out this was common. Pretty weird.
