How many miles on the car now?

What did the transmission fluid look like (colour) when you got the car?
Zacharias, thank you so very much for the help!

By odd, soggy, unsure. It's like it takes a moment to settle in to gear, but not a full true flare, though have had a few of those (fluid low most times). Turning the T key a notch helped (Tram's suggestion).
There is just over 298,000, so getting up there for a transmission. Thus why I bought a used one; need to just pick it up from Oregon.

The transmission fluid had been just changed, so the nice bright red color. Then over time went to schwarz braun. Been so busy not sure when. Instead of it having the nice smell, it has a nasty burned smell that stayed on my hands for the whole day.
