1991 Nissan Sentra 1.6L, 217,000mi, atf drain/refill every 15k miles. Every time I pull the dipstick to check the level, theres some black crud and when I would do drain/refills, the fluid would look red-brownish. Time to do a pan drop.
First pan drop in it's life, cleaned tons off crud of the magnets, installed a new filter, pan gasket, refilled with Dexron VI.

I assume you had the dealer replace the clutch with it having Honda Genuine Type-II MTF in it now over the Amsoil. Did you tell them that you would see them in another 250,000?

Lol, nah it was a local shop I use now. It was either Honda Genuine Type-II MTF or motor oil. I forgot to order more Amsoil MTF ahead of time, so chose the Honda Genuine. Not a bad product or anything, just prefer the Amsoil now is all.
Dealer probably would've been much more expensive. For this job I paid about $565 total parts/labor(I purchased my own clutch kit).

1996 Chevy Astro 4L60E - dropped pan, replaced filter, refilled approx 5 quarts of Supertech Dex III, pulled cooler line and flushed approx 8 quarts of fluid through, total amount of fluid used between refill and flush was 14-15 quarts. Old fluid was 10 years old, 50k miles. Pan was very clean. Not much material in there. I also replaced the rear end fluid with 75W90 at the same time. 105k on the van at this service.

2005 Chevy Colorado w/104K Changed yesterday MTF Fluid to Redline MT 90. Shifts great today, though hearing a little whine in 5th at 65 mph. Had 10w40 ST motor oil in for 800 miles prior and it shifted fine too. Used that as a quik flush. Previously had Pennzoil Syncromesh in for approx. 40K miles. and that shifted great too.
