Another Transmission Filter?

[evad3257]

I was having my transmission fluid flushed at the lube shop and I went into the bay to take a look at the undercarraige. One of the lines from the trans runs to a fuel filter looking canister before running to the cooler. No screw in lines, fittings only, both sides. Any ideas? Should it be replaced?

1.) Garage shops don't appreciate owners coming into the shop due to liablity potential, unless invited or escorted.
2.) Changing the tranny filter is smart no matter what type or fastening (or lack thereof), style. If you're asking about changing/replacing the type and fastening arrangement, that's your call. I was mostly repsonding to changing the filter to new one irregardless of how it's fastened or not fastned.
3.) What type of trasmission fluid did you use? (synthetic or petroleum).

actually, unless they don't have insurance (illegal), it's usually not a problem.
