sounds like a gear cut issue on the synchros. Hence the large amount of metal shavings in some of your oil. The dust is normal, and is the coating on the synchros and gears fresh from the factory. That is why the fluid should be changed at 1000 miles after the break in period. Oil, trans, diff. All changed at 1k. =)
