ewww ATF color
I just changed 2L's out of my car.. The color of the ATF was so nasty i had to snap a picture.. Just changing two 2L's made a huge change.. My car use to shift hard from moving the gear shifter from Park to Drive or from Park to R. Now it dumps gears so smooth.. I think i will change another 2l's in a few days.
Just Ewww It looks like OIL haha

That gearbox is in severe need of a flush. I have just flushed mine at 60,000Km and the fluid was clear & bright green/straw. Your US cars have red fluid. I see no red.

That fluid is 'Lifetime' fluid :-)
Seriously, Xhale, you should drop the pan and clean the mess around the magnet. I bet you will find heavy slush around the magnet. Ask me how I know.

The color is so bad haha.. The car already feels so much better with only 2l's changed out. I will change out the rest very very soon..
I can't believe what i put in was a pink/red more on the red side.. Holy cow~
