That is my suspicion as well. And I had the filter+fluid changed at a tranny shop in June of last year. I'm trying to decide what to do about it. I'm extremely busy with work right now and I'm paying for a rental to commute.

I had the transmission replaced, and it now shifts better than ever before.

So something your transmission guy had set you up with rather than a crate trans I take. Glad you have a dependable ride once again.

It comes on a pallet.

Judging from the fluid and debris in the pan, the clutch(es) were smoked.
