WIX transmission filters protect transmissions against contaminants in the transmission fluid system. Proper filtration helps improve transmission life by minimizing wear and preventing sticking and scoring of sensitive shift control valves. In the event of a part failure, the filter also guards against secondary damage to other parts, helping to minimize repair costs.

Features:

• Filter is matched to OE filtration effectiveness, fluid flow rate, fluid pressure and material
• Reliable construction ensures no unfiltered fluid can bypass the filtration media
• Lock seamed and sealed filter assembly with application specific sealing components ensures complete filtration
• Includes sealing gaskets specifically designed for use with today's sophisticated transmission fluids
