My guess is tmleadr is right a 2000 had dex-cool to start with. Take it to a place better then jiffy lube with real mechanics if you are worried about it, they will be more then happy to get more money from you if something is wrong . Streetglideok makes great points about the problems with these engines however i had a 3.8l that that never skipped a beat in 200k miles besides when i changed the antifreeze just like jerrmrc talked about and killed a water pump and a head gasket. A little bit more now may cost you less in the long run if you do not know what you are looking at. If it were me i would get a flush and see if this "oil" in the antifreeze shows up again and if it does stop driving it until you get it repaired.
