    Put a TransGo shift kit in my 04 Comp G this weekend (69,000 miles) and I was surprised at how much clutch material was at the bottom of my pan.
    I'm pretty sure this is the first fluid change the car has had, but being it has low miles I expected it to be pretty clean.

    I forgot to grab a picture of it, but I found this photo that is pretty close to what mine was like:



    Does this seem excessive or no? I haven't had any real shift issues in the month or so I've had the car. It feels much nicer than my 160k mile GT, but definitely doesn't shift like a brand new car.
    No chunks, pieces, flakes, etc.

    Normal. Even if you do the first pan drop at 50K you get a lot of stuff.
