I recently came into a 2012 Honda Civic LX with the 5 speed A/T.
A honda tech who looked at it said the fluid looked ok and didn't warrant changing. However upon closer inspection it I see red fluid with black stuff suspended pretty moderately in it. I doubt it's original fluid because the A/T shifts flawslessly and it doesn't smell burnt.
Any other signs I should be looking for in the fluid?
Car has 167,800 miles on it, appears to be DW-1.
