Brownish like Mountain Dew color  

Mountain Dew is yellowish green. Where are you buying your dew? 🤔

Its not a big issue, don’t worry so much about it. Buy a couple of bottles of coolant flush, it’s 15 dhs a bottle max and run it in the system for a day. Then flush it all out with water. Always flush from the bottom to the top, that way all the crap with float out the top. If you flush top to bottom, the water will find the easiest way out and only half the engine will get flushed so it’s 2 steps forward 2 steps back. 

In pajero you need to use a glycol based coolant, at least 50% glycol. Anything else and you will end up with the same brown coolant. But a proper flush is imperative.
