Ok, guys I put in the filter. The car feels more peppy. But I wanted to install the little screen, where is it? anyone have any pics? or diagrams?

[wawazat??]

a little help here. What filter are you talking about? Transmission?

Oh yea sorry. I put in the tranny filter. Now I am trying to find where that little screen goes.

I assume you mean by little screen the metal housing that has a metal mesh screen filter.

first you drain the transmission (about 6 or 7 qts will come out).

then take the transmission pan off (more ATF will come out, be ready for about a half-quart)

should be self-evident at that point.

use a new pan gasket (should come with filter)

LOl, I did that already changed the pan gasket and filter. But Trish at subaru parts gave me a little square mesh plastic screen. Its white in color its size is about 1" by 1" it has like a clip to hold it in place. I think it is called a "inlet filter"? not sure. Thanks

I think you're referring to item #8 here:

unfortunately, that I do no know how to change.

I didn't even know there was a filter there. Wow. Anyway, to get to that, obviously you'll have to remove the exhaust and propshaft, drain the tranny and then pull off the extension housing. It's fun. Get a gear puller, is my recommendation.

wowwwwwwwwww, I need to first finish taking automatic transaxle classes to tackle that job. Thanks for the info guys.
