External Tranmission Filter
shortlid replied to bmed's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXGreat thread recently on this http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=86338&page=4 I used the Power King Automatic Transmission Filter on a '03 Legacy GT sedan and it shifts better now. Replaced it at 65,000 miles and there was residue already inside the tranny filter! I would replace it!

Auto Transmission Fluid Change on '00 Outback ??
shortlid replied to 1075's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWOW, the old filter was hard to get off!! It was all gunked up at 65,000 miles. No one warned me that another two qts. come out when you unscrew the filter. Had to make a mad dash for the corner store up the road and pay $5.00 for a qt. of Peak Dexron III ATF. Car shifting much better with Pro-king filter.

Auto Transmission Fluid Change on '00 Outback ??
shortlid replied to 1075's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe Pro-King Transmission filter I have is black, wrapped in plastic inside the box and has the date of manufature painted on it. The Wix I saw for the application on line said it was a oil filter and that made me scared. I like the fact that this filter says ATF only on it.

Auto Transmission Fluid Change on '00 Outback ??
shortlid replied to 1075's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWell just went to Advanced autoparts and on a whim asked them if they stoked one since stealership is so far away and only open 9-5. Well they looked up a Pro-King Automatic Transmission Filter part # FK-335. It says right on it made only for ATF applications and it looks the part. It was only $12 and company looks legit? manager says they sell a lot to the local Saturn dealer for there automtic transmission services?

Auto Transmission Fluid Change on '00 Outback ??
shortlid replied to 1075's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSo after draining and re-filling the ATF in my Mom' 03 GT Legacy sedan the fluid came out REAL dark red after 30k. I now plan to replace the spin on filter and draina nd refill soon. Can I just use a oil filter that fits or do I risk pressure issues WIX cross looks to be a oil filter!
