Wix 58969 Transmission Filter Kit

Wix 58969 Transmission Filter Kit

The Wix 58969 transmission filter kit is built for automatic transmissions that need clean fluid flow and reliable internal filtration. It is a direct-fit service kit for select Subaru applications, including Legacy, Impreza, and Forester models.

• Automatic transmission filter kit for light-duty service applications
• Lock-seamed and sealed construction helps keep unfiltered fluid from bypassing the media
• Application-specific sealing components support complete filtration at the filter interface
• Includes sealing gaskets designed for modern transmission fluids
• Closed inner diameter top and automatic transmission filter style

Filtration Details

Wix designs this transmission filter kit to control fluid flow through the filtration media rather than around it. The sealed assembly and application-specific sealing parts are intended to maintain proper filtration performance in automatic transmissions, while the included gaskets are matched for use with today’s transmission fluid formulations. This makes the Wix 58969 a practical service part for Subaru Legacy, Subaru Impreza, and Subaru Forester transmission maintenance.

This part cross-references FRAM FT1150 and Purolator P1240 for the same application.

Vehicle Fitment

• Fits 1993-1999 Subaru Impreza, N/A
• Fits 1990-1999 Subaru Legacy, N/A
• Fits 1998 Subaru Forester, N/A

Common Uses

• Transmission fluid contamination from worn or restricted filter media
• Poor fluid flow caused by a clogged automatic transmission filter
• Service intervals that require replacement of the transmission filter and sealing gaskets
• Leak concerns at the filter-to-case sealing surfaces
• Maintenance on Subaru automatic transmissions in Legacy, Impreza, and Forester models

Installation Notes

Verify transmission application before installation and compare the old filter and gasket layout to the replacement parts. Clean the transmission pan and sealing surfaces thoroughly, and use the correct fluid specified for the vehicle. For Subaru Legacy, Impreza, and Forester service, confirm the filter style and sealing points match the original unit before reassembly.

Quality Assurance

Wix transmission filter kits are engineered with sealed assemblies and application-specific sealing components to support proper filtration in automatic transmission service.
