Below is a summary from Blackstone:
"This sample from your Milan's transmission looks pretty good for a wear in sample. If it was really in
use for 36,700 miles, this material is probably from the initial wear in of new parts. Aluminum is probably
from the torque converter, tin and nickel are probably coatings or alloys of other metals, and silicon is
probably from the harmless sealers used to assemble the transmission. Insolubles read high, showing lots
of oxidized solids. It's probably a good idea to change this oil out before insolubles get abrasive. Averages
are based on about 23,500 miles so try that on new oil."
Wow, only 36,700 miles and I already need to change my transmission fluid. Ford recommended 150,000 miles. Don't do it!!
