Thumbs up Tough auto trans

The filter is a fine metal screen.

My next post tells you how to do it.

I must say that the trans is very tough, tougher than many other car brands.

When I was doing filter changes (about 100 or so) at the dealer back in the 80's, I noticed that there just wasn't a bunch of crap on the pan bottom (like American cars), and the screens were very clean.

So take care of this, and the trans should last a VERY long time.

(Unless you are doing lots of burnouts)
