Well done that man 
That colour deffo don't look right for ATF. Even without the silvery sheen!
Reminds me many years ago had a Mini auto for a couple or three years, every oil change some more metal filings came out with it. Still kept going though!

Another update !,
Well I got everything back together on Tuesday but forgot about the gasket for the exhaust manifold ! 
So today exhaust on, box filled with nice new red fluid !
Started & was idling a bit rough!, but then the revs picked up & was idling smooth as before!.
Selected all of the gears & topped the gearbox up a bit more,
Got the car back on the ground & moved it around the car park so it was level & checked the fluid level once more!
Went for a quick drive & everything feels good, it's clunking into 2nd ? But I'll give it a day or two for the fluid to get around the box & torque converter!
But all is good ! I've got a smooth ride + reverse !! & no vibration around 70 mph ! 
Again a big thanks to Stu
Steve

I wonder how long it will take you to get out of the "no reverse" parking tactics

If the box was good before this happened it will make an easy repair.....
Give the old box to Stuart, and when he gets around to coming up here, I'll repair it then he's got another good 2.3 box to keep someone running !!
Cheers Dave |

Sometimes when you change things it changes the operating conditions that the PCM keeps in its memory, so may just be a case that it has to "re-learn" the settings.
When I did the big session last year with the new exhaust system and eveything the idle was too fast initially, making selecting speeds "lurchy". But sorted itself out after a couple of days.

Hi Highlander,I hope with all the Coffee & Biscuits that appear to be partial to that you work it off riding a bike once you are back in the Hilly Bits.
