Some vehicles with a 4R55E, 5R55E, 4R44E, or A4LD transmission may
have interference in the way of a deeper pan. Interference can be from
many things, such as a cross member or the exhaust system. Please check
your vehicle for clearance before ordering.
Please check your vehicle to be sure there is enough room to allow
our pan to clear your exhaust system. Some customers with the 4.0 V6
have had contact with the catalytic converters or resonators that are
located along side or in front of the transmission pan.
The A4LD transmission is a C3 transmission with overdrive.
Filter Info

On a 2WD vehicle, you must use the 4WD filter
because of the pick up tube. These images show from left to right: the
2wd filter, the 4wd filter, both filters, side view of both filters.
