My fluid was clear however, but it was still new (less than 200 miles).

Good thread.
I threw the kitchen sink at it as soon as I got it moved. Foamy Engine Brite, Castrol Oil Eater and then some old school regular Tide (not that HE stuff either!) It cleaned up pretty well but it's also been dark every time I've had a chance to look. Funny you mention yours was clear. Mine was clear going in but black coming out. ..Less than 5 miles. Looks like I flushed out the old syncro material I guess. I think I may have to find a cheaper flushing oil! LOL
