In other words the fluid looks like new. I have no problems with operation. She runs like a top. I used OBD Link with the green LX blue tooth adapter to my cell phone for this check today. I used to have Torque Pro, but dumped it as it took forever to link to my blue tooth adapter.

Thoughts?

Thinking there's an issue with the way your phone is displaying the data. I'm not a programmer, but the data from the OBD port needs to be interpreted in the correct way to have the indicated value be accurate. That typically involves running a specific response through a formula. I'm thinking something is off with your OBDLink app. I've used the same app, but gave it up for Torque Pro.

Something's wrong. I suspect it's something with the way the data is being interpreted by the software.

I guess I could plug in AE and see what it has to say huh? I just hate using it because it takes several minutes to setup and you can't save a vehicle profile for next time. This brings to suspect the other data which is displayed also. Hum.... B.

All a deep pan does for you is cost money. It does NOT cool the transmission.
