Time to make an appt.

The fluid that's in there, strangely.. is this.. pinkish color. I was expecting a dull clearish green. Unless it was just the way my white LED flashlight was fluorescing the fluid last night. It looked like a lot of particulate was swimming around in there. Probably what's left of the pump.

Ohwell. Not my problem. This is what the warranty is for. I gotta wonder what has gone wrong though...

The bottle itself or the fluid? I remember refiling from a blue bottle and greenish fluid

Strange, the fluid should be a dull light green.
