Lab results on GA6F21WA automatic transmission fluid JWS3309 with 153,000 miles
Hey guys,
Thought someone might be interested in the status of JWS3309 automatic transmission oil with 10 years and 153000 miles on it from a 2008 R56 Cooper S.
Metals were high but the oil hadn't deteriorated. Compliments of Blackstone Labs:

Anyway the tranny was shifting fine. The oil was still viable but full of wear metals. I had never serviced it.
The lab said they only have a few samples from our transmission in their database so those universal averages, while specific to our transmission, aren't from a robust database.
Per Blackstone labs "The averages are based on samples we've seen from the Aisin 6-speed, but there's not a whole lot of them, and most of the intervals were much shorter than yours. I looked through other reports and there were a few with metals about half as high as yours after going about half as far on the oil"
This drip appears to be the only picture I have.
