The Wix 58898 auto trans filter kit for the 2002-2010 Ford Explorer and other vehicles cleans the fluid that circulates through your automatic transmission. The filter traps wear particles and debris before the fluid goes back through the transmission.
- The design and construction leave no path for unfiltered fluid to bypass the application-specific filtration media.
- Lock-seamed, sealed assembly built for complete filtration.
- Sealing components made for this specific application.
- Sealing gaskets designed for use with today's sophisticated transmission fluids.
Slipping shifts, harsh engagement or a transmission whine can mean the filter is clogged, though low fluid or a failing shift solenoid can do the same, so find the cause before you replace it.
The 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac and the 2002-2010 Mercury Mountaineer are covered as well: the kit is a direct-fit replacement for them and for other Ford and Lincoln models.
