Yup, easy way to spot bad stuff (like anti-freeze) in the oil....

Mine was a dark amber color, kinda like maple syrup (Mobil 1).

First it has a slightly green tint and then it's a little milky? Both are indications of antifreeze or excessive moisture in your crankcase/oil. Keep very good records on what it looks like, you may want to take it in and have them check it out.[:@]

yeah, mine looks the same in the can- freaked me out the first time, so i dumped it into a jar to show the dealer, but as soon as it's out of the occ it looks normal. i think it's just the way the plastic of the occ refracts the light.

It could be that plus any of the surrounding colors at the time making it appear different.
