    On the rock auto website it shows a sump filter and transmission filter. Do any of you replace your transmission filters or sump filters? They also have a shift improvement kit. Does anyone have it installed ?

    Yes I recommend replacing it every time you perform a transmission service (ie fluid change) the pan gasket is reusable,

    Thats good to know. I drain/refill the ATF, but have not thought to replace the filter in there.
