JPX Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I've changed by auto trans fluid A LOT. But I admit *sheepish cringe* I have never pulled out that filter.:-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Which is a screen only, no tran filter on the 4EAT prior to 97 I believe. I've changed by auto trans fluid A LOT.

hogweed Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 this is what i am trying to find out: i have read some posts about the screen filter, and also some about an oil filter type (newer car i think). there is a filter and pan gasket available for the year and model car i have but i want to make sure before i buy it. can i achieve the same results by just changing the fluid? thanks, gregg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Its a screen. Unless your tranny pan is leaking, there is no reason to go in there and service it. Subaru does not call out for it to be serviced. The newer trannies have a spin on filter. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2.5GL Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Just drain and refill, save yourself the time. Unless, of course, internal damage has occured. If fluid smells burnt, might be worth a check to see if something is going wrong before it blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogweed Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 thanks. i'll change the fluid out. it looks o.k. and smells like trans fluid but i'm noticing some bind so i think i will change it and see if it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
