Default anti freeze looks "gritty"

I NEED HELP!!!! I have a 03 gs 300 that runs great but my heat it's not the best. It would get comfortable but never 85 like it says. Suddenly it started to get colder which made me check the antifreeze. When I checked the fluids, the antifreeze in the reservoir tank looks gritty like orange sand. What's the cause of this????

Default

its old and the anti freeze breaks down over time. so the stuff in it crystalizes.

flush it.

as for your heat, you have to make sure to bleed the system well.
