What would be gray that comes off that wouldn't be stuck to the magnet? Clutch material?
I did a pan drop on my '99 about 5k ago, but didn't do the gasket right, so off it came again. I'm guessing I would have cleaned up the inside of the pan... Anyhow, there was a big of grayish material in one spot. Not a huge pile, just some. Bit more fuzz on the magnets than I would have guessed for such a short period of time. [No I didn't keep pics, figured it wouldn't come out well.]
ATF was still nice and red, no surprise there. Shifts about the same as ever, bit harsh on cold 1 to 2 shift, rest of time same-old, same-old. Same delay into 1st when cold that it's had for a long time (tried a new strainer, no change). I do drive it hard, so maybe it's just normal end of life clutch shedding? prior owner appears to have never changed fluid, it was kinda nasty at 140k when I did the first flush.
