I will proceed to take the car back to the Chevy dealer and have the oil changed or see if they will use my Royal Purple that is standing by on my shelf. The analysis is worthwhile and I think it will help push the case. For $20 and rapid turn around via email I am pleased.

Orange, I can tell you from the dealers stand point that what ever you bring will have no bearing on this issue. It is really up to the service manager to step up and either replace the trans or have a manual specialist tech go through it.
Also, there are 2 large magnets at the bottom of the main case and that will attract any metalic debris floating around.
Here are the 2nd gear carbon blocker pics I promised.
