Look like my gearbox heat exchanger is toast

2012 4.4 tdv8 8 speed
Guys, had symptoms of torque converter judder and had contemplated a new TC but decided to check fluid levels and this came out the filler hole overflow. So looks like I need to change the gearbox cooler and flush a good few litres of new fluid in -nothing else to lose! Anyone had this same colour fluid?

Yikes. That’s not nice.

Is there any sign of oil in your coolant? Last car I had an oil cooler fail on it contaminated the gearbox oil with coolant and the coolant with gearbox oil.

I’ve bought a secondhand box and tc as an insurance but fancy a cooler and fluid change as a way of putting off the inevitable till better weather comes!
