It is a direct fit for select Audi and Volkswagen applications that reference OE part number 09E325429, including Audi A8 Quattro, Audi S6, Audi S8, Audi Q7, and Volkswagen Touareg coverage.

Key Features

• Automatic transmission filter kit with application-specific filtration media.
• Lock-seamed and sealed construction helps keep unfiltered fluid from bypassing the filter media.

• Cellulose filter media for service replacement applications.
• Closed top design for the specified transmission fitment.

Detailed Description

Wix WL10381 is a transmission filter kit engineered for automatic transmissions that need precise fluid filtration and sealing integrity. The filter construction is designed to route fluid through the media rather than around it, while the sealed assembly and application-specific sealing components support proper filtration performance. This part cross-references Volkswagen 09E325429 for the same application.

For Audi A8 Quattro, Audi S6, Audi S8, Audi Q7, and Volkswagen Touareg service work, the WL10381 provides a fitment-specific replacement option for the transmission filter service interval. The part number WL10381 is also useful when matching OE reference 09E325429 during parts lookup.

Common Service Issues Addressed

• Restricted transmission fluid flow caused by a loaded filter element.
• Contamination in automatic transmission fluid.
• Poor sealing at the filter or gasket interface.
• Bypass of unfiltered fluid through a worn or incorrect filter assembly.
• Service replacement needs for OE-referenced transmission filter applications.

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the transmission application by OE reference before installation. Replace the filter during transmission service and inspect the sealing surfaces for debris or damage. Use the correct fluid specified for the vehicle and transmission, and verify that the gasket and filter are seated properly before refilling.

Quality Assurance

Wix designs transmission filters with application-specific media, sealed construction, and sealing components intended for modern automatic transmission fluid systems. Part number WL10381 is built to match the listed OE-referenced applications.
