A4BF3 A4AF3 [00-UP] Automatic Transmission Filter (I) (Half Plastic)

When the Automatic Transmission Filter in an A4AF3, A4BF2, or related automatic transmission becomes restricted, fluid pressure across the valve body drops and shift feel suffers; replacing it with the correct half-plastic design restores proper flow geometry and keeps the hydraulic circuit working as intended. What separates this part from a generic Automatic Transmission Filter is the half-plastic construction: these units use a specific Automatic Transmission Filter profile that must seat flush against the valve body, and an Automatic Transmission Filter that does not match that profile will not seal correctly regardless of how carefully it is installed.

This listing covers a single Automatic Transmission Filter identified as SKU, applicable to the A4AF3, A4BF2, A4BF3, W4A32, W4A33, F4A32, and F4A33 automatic transmission families, with model years spanning [90-07] for the A4AF and A4BF series and [00-UP] for the W4A and F4A series. The part weighs 1 lb and ships as one piece; there are no gaskets, seals, friction clutches, steel plates, or solenoids included in this order.

Before purchasing, locate the transmission identification tag or code stamped on your unit and confirm it matches one of the codes listed above. Also confirm whether your current installed Automatic Transmission Filter is the half-plastic style, because some of these platforms used more than one Automatic Transmission Filter design across production years. Ordering the wrong profile will result in an Automatic Transmission Filter that does not seat properly, which defeats the purpose of the replacement. If you are unsure which Automatic Transmission Filter your unit carries, pull the pan and compare the Automatic Transmission Filter profile before placing the order.

• This Automatic Transmission Filter addresses restricted fluid flow in the valve body circuit; one unit per application, sized for the half-plastic Automatic Transmission Filter position in these transmissions.
