  • No-bypass design: The filter's design and construction are intended to keep unfiltered fluid from getting past the application-specific filtration media.
  • Lock-seamed, sealed assembly: The lock-seamed and sealed construction works with application-specific sealing components and is designed to route the fluid through the filtration media.
  • Sealing gaskets included: The kit comes with sealing gaskets designed specifically for use with today's sophisticated transmission fluids.

A transmission filter traps particles and debris carried in the transmission fluid. Over time it can load up with contaminants, so it is commonly replaced as part of a transmission fluid service. Delayed engagement, slipping or erratic shifting can be among the signs of a restricted filter. These symptoms can have many other causes, so diagnose the transmission before replacing parts. Install the filter and the new gaskets together, and follow the vehicle service information for the correct fluid type, fill procedure and fastener torque.
