Transmission Filter ?
So going to change Tranny filter/fluid in my Daughter's 2003 , went to get filter and gasket kit from napa ...but guy says not all the trannys take a filter ?????
never heard that before ..whats up ? he was going on about the build date as to if it needs it .
So whats the scoop guys ? what am I looking for....... or is he just wrong

Not quite true. There is a "filter" inside the transmission. Actually, it's just a metal screen. You have to drop the pan to get to it. When I dropped the pan on my 2000 SE, the magnets were quite clean (a lot cleaner than Donkeypunch's magnets), so I just cleaned the magnets but did not bother to replace the filter/screen. I had - and still have - the replacement part, but removing and re-installing the bolts (of varied length) that hold the screen in place is a PITA.

Ya there's a screen there but don't fool yourself,
that metal screen doesn't filter jack.
Unless you drop idk what, take a guess, in the fill tube all of the particles are
going to be ultra fine metal from the clutches and gears.
Maybe large sized beach sand that got in your ATF bottles or on the funnel?
