Tranny oil change

[peter32892]

So my friend Corey and I changed my tranny oil tonight and I can say it was smelly ass oil.  So We get it jacked up and we take the plug out and inspect it and there is this huge piece of metal on it. I believe that it is a syncro. So yeah we we then dump the oil from into a windshield washer fluid and it is black as hell, like it was never ever changed, also appeared to be a quart or two down.  So yeah the differences in shifting is great so happy I did this.  Everyone should go to Fred if you want extra s. Thanks Fred. 
Black oil

Yikes.  There is going to be a rebuild in your future.  Not good for ANY piece of your tranny to be spinning around, missing a jagged chunk.

It does make a huge difference. Extra-S is awesome.

Actually, you reminded me, need to check the level in mine.

Tranny shifts fine, and not a problem at all. For all I know it could have been sitting on the drain plug for 100k miles. And I mean the marks on it could have been when it broke off and got to the magnetic drain plug not it bouncing around. hopefully.   I remember Byron taking something chunk out when he did his but his pics are no longer on his photobucket so I'm not sure.
