Changing Manual Transmission Fluid 850

The oil from the dealer is recommended. I've been changing mine at the 100k mark (279k now). The oil is a light brown clear fluid that is indisquingisable from the Redline MTL I use in my 240. The gray stuff you saw may have been worn rubber from the seals, or indicate a more serious problem. If the oil resembles metallic paint when you drain it it is a sign a bearing is going bad.
