• Automatic transmission filter kit for light-duty service applications

Detailed Description

Wix 58945 is a transmission filter kit engineered for automatic transmission service where fluid cleanliness and sealing integrity matter. The filter construction is designed so fluid passes through the filtration media rather than around it, while the sealed assembly and matched gasket components support a secure service replacement. This makes it a practical choice for maintaining transmission fluid condition in vehicles such as the 1995-2002 Toyota Tacoma, 1995 Toyota 4Runner, and 1985-1992 Volvo 740.

This part cross-references FRAM FT1099 and Purolator P1186 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Transmission fluid contamination from worn or clogged filter media
• Poor sealing at the transmission pan or filter interface
• Restricted fluid flow caused by a dirty automatic transmission filter
• Service issues on Toyota Tacoma, Toyota 4Runner, and Volvo automatic transmissions
• Maintenance needs on older import vehicles with specified filter service intervals

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify transmission model and service requirements before installation.
• Drain and inspect the transmission fluid and pan during filter service.
• Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly before installing the new gasket components.
• Confirm the filter seats correctly and the sealing surfaces align before reassembly.
• Use the vehicle’s specified automatic transmission fluid after service.

Quality Assurance

Wix transmission filter kits are built with application-specific sealing components and sealed filter construction to support consistent filtration during automatic transmission service. The Wix 58945 is a direct replacement option for listed fitments including Toyota Tacoma, Toyota 4Runner, Volvo 740, and related applications.
