How to get the sun red again ?

Years ago i used only my kit lenses with my Canon 40D and always achieved the sun as a red ball............but now using more expensive lenses i only achieve a yellow ball for the sun.
Why is it so ? [from memory i think the white balance was the same on both instances ]

Any advice appreciated.

Change the white balance is the only way I know. Change to shady or cloudy.
