Somehow that Dexcool does find it's way out of your engine in places that the "green" stuff doesn't....and I can't exactly explain why.

I have been running it for 4 years in the 1985 245Ti with only one problem: I don't think it's compatible with the newest style black tank cap.

If the leak is active I doubt changing back would stop the leak. It also is quite possible that it was getting ready to leak anyway...I say new gasket time.
