Magnets on transmission filter
First of all thanks to all who contribute to these forums, I have learned a lot browsing them. Things I have come acoss while working on my TL Type S.
Cabin air filter change out really improved air flow in the car everyone must check thiers and change them if needed. Found the filters on Ebay for cheap.
Spark plug change out was super easy, use a 6 inch extension and a spark plug socket, I layed down on the engine and was able to wrap my right arm in that back empty area to do a lot of the work.
I just did a transmission filter change + cooler + magnefine + whats in this video. Has any one thought of an oil jet for the transmission using the banjo where the oil goes in the transmission. Is the weak place of the transmission within reach of a jet of tranny fluid if directed at it from there? There already is a 4-5 inch tube at that banjo but if someone developed an aftermarket tube which sprayed in the direction of the weakness it may help. Just trying to think outside the box I guess. Here is my video of the magnets on the tranny filter.

Is there an updated GPS DVD that a person could buy to update the roads?

There is already a oiljet for the 2nd gear shaft. There is NO way to spray more fluid INTO the 3rd gear clutch drum.

Sorry but those magnets are not going to do anything.
Any material big enough to get caught would have been stopped by the pumps pick up screen.
Any smaller microns will be stopped at the filter.
While there may be a slight gain in filter life (we are talking miniscule) you are best to change the fluid and filter at more frequent intervals.
Clean fluid will avoid clogging the pressure valves and such and is the only real insurance you have.
I have done many oil analysis with systems like this and there is Zero effect. Just a thin film on the inside of the filter can.
I do use those hard drive magnets to collect metal particles around my milling machine and grinders though!
