There was a fine powdery sludge on the magnet in the pan, but no metal shavings. It is still doing the same thing.
It has 95,500 miles on it. 2.2 motor. The fluid was low a couple weeks ago. I added a bottle of conditioner. Don't remember the brand name. 2 reservoirs in the bottle so it mixes as you pour it in. It started acting up 7 days ago.
Any help would be appreciated.
Have a great day.
Remember dope kills.

Get a good transmission /engine scanner on it and check for codes and problems. and bad sensors/solenoids engine or transmission.
Let us know what you find there.
