I've seen this before and I usually don't worry about it unless there are metal shavings in it. I think its just dirt from the tranny getting old. But maybe some one else knows better.

Subject: what's in my trans pan?

..while I'm doing stuff under the car I decided to replace the trans  
pan gasket and filter
for the Torqueflite 727, it's leaking also. So after draining the  
tranny fluid and pulling the
pan I see a thin layer of grey sludge covering the bottom of the pan? I  
don't remember
seeing this stuff before? Is this from using Mobil 1 synthetic trans  
fluid? or is something
bad happening here? The tranny seems to work fine although it could  
always be better.
any Ideas or is this normal for an old Torqueflite?
thanks for any help here,
Schuyler
