I just did my tranny and oil the other day, and I got to say, that looks like a good bit of shavings to me. Mine had a small bit of very fine shavings and a hint of sludge and thats after plenty of track time. I would watch that.

It shouldn't look like this.



This is normal.

My thought is that you should probably check it again after you've driven a few hundred miles.

If there is a lot of that crap on there again, you might have an issue.

If not, drive it like you stole it!
