Just had trans fluid change on 2016 civic ext. Some metal on the magnetic plug. Trans shifts fine, just under 40k miles. Attaching pic, tech couldn't say what was the cause. Not sure if this has been there since year 1. This is the first trans fluid change. I think nothing to worry about but wanted to get opinions. Transmission is operating normally from my own opinion and the techs test drive after the service.
Chunks are never really a good sign. Small amount of metal filings is normal
Kinda my thoughts. Probably just gonna do a trans fluid change in 12 months and see what's there Not ideal to see but could have been there for years. If there is more then time to trade in I guess. Not sure how great the CVT transmission is, never been a fan of how it feels in general. For now the car drives like it did when new off the lot.
