The rebuilt ones are just as good as new as nearly every part is replaced. Use the OEM external filter or the easier add, cheaper and possibly better Magnefine one.

So the external filter have to be change

Those are actually factory rebuilt transmissions, expensive with a too short warranty for the huge price they ask.

Looks like $3,123.32

The transmission fluid filter is in the engine compartment in front of the alternator in the picture below.

The thread shows a picture of the filter after being cut open. The filter needs to be periodically replaced with a new one. Many members use a Magnafine filter instead of the OEM type in the picture. The Magnafine provides a better cost value. Last fall I had to wait about 6 weeks for an OEM filter to arrive after I ordered one from IOS. I believe it had to be shipped to the US via boat from Japan.

Which begs the question, where else does one buy a factory rebuilt one for less?

Cut open? Really?

normally just swapped with a brand new one......."cut open" old one is only to look inside to see how much debris it collected if you are interested in knowing.
