more than likely he used just a 'straight run' hyd fliud, like a DTE 16 or a AW26 thats almost colorless, and most likely some moisture contamination.

we had the same problem with a couple of 560's changed trans oil filled with oil from orschlens when drained was white as could be. dont know if they sweat enough to change color of oil or what after the second filter change everything was ok. kinda makes you wonder tho
