Can someone confirm what colour my autobox oil should be? Mine looks grey with a hint of pink.

Depends on the manufacture Scotty.........it's usually dark red and translucent, although some (I think it's Duckhams) is blue).
There should be a sweet smell to it, any "burnt toast" smell indicated burned clutch plates :(
