If it's grey, then you may be in for some fun.
1. May just be a CV boot leak, and you're even better off than I thought. 2. Otherwise, the tranny fluid is so littered with fragments of trashed synchros and stripped gears that the fluid appears grey. If so, you might as well use that lubricant on your anal canal, because you're in for a ride. But if you didn't use MTL redline or some other synthetic in the tranny, then it's probably normal that it's grey and you're back at step one. Either way, you'll need to extract that bolt remnant and replace it. -------------------- my cars breath smells like car food
