The transmission filter is interior to the transmission and does not require replacement unless you are rebuilding the unit. I included the info about the transmission temperature sensor. Also, a picture of the filter and diagram of the inlet to the filter and the pump. The manual does not have a specific process for the filter due to it not being a maintenance item.

Let me know if there is something else you need and we can go from there. Thanks

It is located right behind bell housing on left hand side of transmission. See picture for filter and where it screws on to.

The transmission fluid filter is on top of the transmission like an oil filter. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed. Cheers
