WIX Oil Filters provide excellent engine protection using conventional, synthetic, or synthetic-blended motor oils, as recommended by the OE vehicle manufacturer, for normal and severe driving conditions such as stop and go traffic, dirt roads, construction sites, short trips, and interstate travel. WIX filters are recommended for OEM oil and filter change intervals, typically 3,750 to 10,000 miles, not to exceed 12 months.

• Traps up to 50% more dirt and contaminants than Pro-Tec with the best combination of capacity & efficiency for severe conditions.
• When applicable, WIX flexible silicone anti-drainback valve protects against dry engine starts past the traditional filter change interval.
• Laboratory Test Performance per ISO 454812: dirt-holding capacity of 18 grams and 99% efficient at 23 microns (a human hair is roughly 70 microns in diameter)

Tips & Tools For The Job

• Place a Drain Pan under the transmission to catch old fluid
• Use a Scraper to remove the old pan gasket and ensure the pan edges are free of any gasket residue
• Clean the fluid pan and pan magnet with Brake Cleaner or Multi Purpose Cleaner
• Apply Multi Purpose Grease or Rebuild Lubricant to the edges of the fluid plan to hold the new gasket in place during installation
• Torque pan bolts in a criss-cross pattern during reinstallation to ensure uniform gasket compression
• Measure the amount of old transmission fluid drained to determine how much new Transmission Fluid to add
• Use a Funnel to prevent spills when refilling the transmission
