This is an interesting topic, but I will not become involved in any argument which may follow.

A reputable organisation here, (Eastern Transmission Specialists) when they fitted a cooler for me, advised against a filter. Obviously they would have increased their profit by doing so and I accepted their word.

They told me that they had repaired many Subaru transmissions which had failed solely due to a blocked filter. What is more they removed filters by way of a safe guard, rather than fitted them. Take it or leave it.
