    Found A Part Sticking To The Magnet In The Transmission

    Today I was doing a 68RFE fluid/filters service on my truck and found this metal like bushing thing sticking to the magnet. I was wondering if someone might know what it is and if I should be concerned.

    Background.

    The truck is a 2017 RAM 2500 6.7L.

    Transmission is a Mopar reman with about 40K miles on it. No warranty because the truck title is branded. The shift lever is manual column-mounted, not the rotary knob.

    Towing in hot weather I got a trouble code for line pressure below target (I don't remember the exact code, sorry). I watched the target pressure vs actual pressure with my MM3. What I saw was when the line pressure would request 170 but only go up to 160. Wasn't sure if this was a big deal but I figured it's about time to do a fluid/filters change anyway.

    Had an issue shortly after the transmission was installed about two years ago where the transmission lever got stuck when I tried to go from drive to reverse. I discovered that the lever on the transmission traveled too far when going from Park to Drive and got jammed. I got it unjammed with a pair of channel locks and verified the adjustment. It's been ok since. Although there does seem to be a little slop in the gear lever. I observed that this is coming from the lever on the transmission. Not sure how much is normal.

    Otherwise, the transmission works perfectly normal.

    Thanks in advance for the help!
