You could also try replacing the fluid, empty the reservoir with a large syringe (~200ml) and discharge it into an empty, clean Pot Noodle pot or similar - makes it easier to see the colour and contamination.

Refill with ATF and bleed by turning the wheel from lock to lock slowly with the engine idling. Top up if necessary after.

Repeat this weekly (assuming you're using the car) until the fluid stays clean. If it doesn't even begin to get clean, you'll have to find the cause.
