Trans fluid change
Changed my fluid earlier today and it was really dirty. I took a pic of the drain plug. Is this a normal amount of shavings for 165k with same fluid for last 80k?

Re: Trans fluid change
The amount of shavings will depend on how the trans was treated in those last 80 thousand miles.

Re: Trans fluid change
When I changed my tranny fluid at 150k there were shavings on the drain plug but a little less than your pic. I don't know how old the fluid was tho..
I wouldn't worry about it..
