    I just changed my tranny fluid in my Dino.

    what came out was green. I have receipt showing it to be Swepco 201 (80/90).

    I filled it up with the same fluid and it was bright blue.

    Anyone know if Swepco 201 turns from bright blue to green with use or do you think the prev fluid was something else?

    thanks!!

    I know it is blueish green. I used it in my 911.

    It doesn't change color. It was probably diluted with a prior oil.

    Have you considered getting an oil analysis performed on a sample?
    Since the car is relatively new to you, this will establish a baseline.

    Yes, I collected a sample.

    I'm changing crank case next week; I'm mail them together.
