Beck/Arnley Trans Filter - 044-8001

Cheaper and easier to find that OEM, seems to be doing the job so far NP - i DO suggest replacing your transmission filter but use a large interval - like 60k on the Subaru or perhaps when you do a fluid exchange, not just when you drop the pan.

Exactly what was needed for our Subaru. Premium quality and product from a quality and known brand. And it was more cost effective than the generic/store brands from the big box stores.

Works great

Had a local shop change the transmission fluid. I was surprised that they didn't change the filter. When researching this,I learned Subaru does not have a recommended replacement interval for this filter so the shop was technically correct in not replacing it; however, since I did have 140,000 miles, I decided to replace the filter.It is easier to replace this filter than the oil filter. Since removing this filter does remove some fluid, after removing the filter I weighted it and compared to the new filter. The old, 'wet' filter was about 6 ounces heavier than the new, dry filter so I added 6 ounces of AT fluid to compensate. Don't know if that was necessary, but then again, according to Subaru replacing the filter was not necessary. ----> This is not a substitute for regular changes of the AT fluid.

Works great and not over priced. 06 Subaru Baja turbo.

The filter fit and is what was described. One touch that I really liked and why I’ll probably buy from them again was going through the effort of shrink wrapping the actual filter. The gasket seemed sturdy and well made too. Filter has no markings either which I personally like. All in all thumbs up.

There are many schools of thought with regards to whether OEM is necessary or not. I can personally. vouch for this oil filter. As mentioned, it fits quite snug, feels high quality, and *seems* to have somewhat reduced my car's oil consumption. (Subaru Forester, 2021)

Fits perfectly for a 4EAT phase 2 transmission
