The 3/8” Magnefine Filter System by Boss Products
The MAGNEFINE 3/8” filter extends the filtration spectrum to provide dual filtration that is
designed to be completely effective in removing damaging ferrous metal particles from
automatic transmissions and power steering systems.
When the fluid passes within the effective range (5mm) of the powerful magnet, the
MAGNEFINE filter quickly attracts all the hard damaging ferrous particles, even down to an
incredible sub-micron level stopping the "chain reaction of wear".
(University test show removal of harmful ferrous metal particles to 99.9974%) The secondary
filtration media, removes remaining non-ferrous materials (i.e. copper, aluminum, dirt, clutch
material)
The worldwide patented MAGNEFINE dual filtration filter is the only effective form of filtration
that can provide dynamic small particle extraction while maintaining full line flow capabilities
for automatic transmissions and power steering systems.
EXTENDS TRANSMISSION SERVICE CYCLE
continual cleaning of the transmission fluid actually produces cleaner fluid than the
new fluid you put into the system. Major OEM's recommend adding 10,000 miles to
your service cycle with the use of the Magnefine filter.
EXTENDS COMPONENT LIFE
filtering out ferrous particles 3 microns and up will enhance component life by 7 times,
according to Sayles and Macpherson.
DESIGNED FOR EASY INSTALLATION
easily installed on both hose and steel lines. Magnefine has simplified steel line
installations with the use of its "SMART CONNECT" fittings.
SIMPLIFIES TRANSMISSION SERVICING
No more dropping the pan to service the pan filter at your normal cycle. Pan filter
servicing is recommended at 100,000 miles. Servicing may be accomplished by
evacuation at the inline filter points or by draining. STOPS "CHAIN REACTION OF
WEAR" Removing the ferrous particles in the 3 to 15 micron range with the powerful
magnet, stops the wear and break down of the stabilizers.

I also run two of these filters on my Honda CRV. One for the transmission and the other for the power steering. I have not had any issues and have been running those filters for about five years.
Just so you know that website for the filter is no longer active. BOSS was based out of Australia and have handed over their filter production to a different Australian company apparently. Also this Magnefine Filter was an OEM part in a few models apparently - and then the after market got flooded with fakes with no overflow valve!! Crazy scary. I think I tracked down an original Magnefine Filter. Turns out the 4L60e has a technical bulletin to install a 2nd magnet in the pan since the pressure control Solenoid is sucking up metal bits causing the "bump and slip" - and there's a 3 to 1 ratio from 1st to 2nd on that transmission - so a lot of pressure on the solenoid.
Awesome. I have been installing magnefine filters on transmissions and power steering for a few years now. I still have one of the old plastic ones on my 2002 Cavalier I think I'm going to change it soon to the new metal one I'll probably do a video myself. I also am a fan of auxiliary fluid coolers and Amsoil 100% synthetic fluids. As far as people saying all this stuff is overkill that's fine ... I'll just keep driving with trouble free service from my vehicles
Magnefine filters are excellent filters. Specially now that they are in a steel casing. Cheap insurance for sure.
@@AZDESERT2024 good deal I actually did switch mine to one of the new metal case magnefine filters. Did a video on that and also single remote bypass on my 2007 Honda Pilot. Glad to hear you are protecting your vehicles with the best!
Thank you for this teardown!
My 08 honda crv i bought. Shifted a little hard. So i replaced factory external transmission filter with a magnifine and put new fluid in. By 400 miles i could feel a noticeable difference in smoothness. I was sold after that.
I remember going to get the paint. And the metal shavings. Great video!
On some filters it will not be pressed in the metal, so make sure to take a photo before painting.
Stainless comprises several alloys. Some alloys are magnetic and some will rust.
And this filter rusts... seems to be doing a good job. We'll see when i have to replace the transmission filter after 30k miles of use.
I think that some stainless alloys are also heat sensitive in the sense that if they’re welded without special controls, it will go into a phase that isn’t rust free.
a weld itself is not stainless so it would rust? Oh later you said the outside rusted. Got it.
Awesome Video mate.
Thank you, appreciate your support!
Just FYI, stainless in it's original form does NOT rust, however if it gets marked, scribed, or welded, it will rust at those damaged points.
Engine oil is filthy and requires changing often. The power steering and transmission fluids are not and thus this filter does not require changing very often. I’d suggest changing it as often as your power steering or transmission fluid recommended service intervals recommend. For most cars 100,000 miles or beyond.
Nice tear down video. I like your honest no nonsense approach.
Thanks for watching! I agree with you, these inline filters can last tens of thousands of miles compared to engine oil filters. Just for curiosity, I replaced the transmission inline filter I installed one year ago. The filter exacly 16,654 miles; at this mileage the filter is still pretty clean. I am going to disect the filter I removed and see what it looks like after 1 year / 16k miles of use.
Most transmissions don't get the fluid changed more than once in their lifespan. I'd replace the first inline filter in one thousand or two thousand miles and again in one more thousand or two after that... then change every 10,000 - 20,000 miles. If you keep the inline filter fresh the strainer and pan magnet will likely never need to be serviced again.
Can you tell me if the magnafine filter is now made of metal because the one I bought is plastic. The bypass should be around 8 PSI to avoid bursting a line or your oil cooler. I put a spin on filter (10 micron) on my truck and it is amazing at cleaning up a dirty transmission. I had some dick tell me that there is no need for a cooler line filter because they are so much of an expert and unaware that the standard filter is just a strainer rated at 100-150 microns LOL. BTW: I just picked up a Honda trans filter to install on my P/S system, its small and made of steel, 3/8 barb connections, and painted black (no magnet) but small strong magnets could be placed on the outside to attract iron.
The new ones are made out of stainless steel. I thought about using a Honda filter, but it is much smaller than this Magnefine filter and no magnet. I am using two of these filters in my truck. One for the transmission and another one for the power steering. You should check out the other videos I have uploaded about them.
Well done video,
Thank you!!!
Great video
Thank you!
good video.
Thank you!
How do i determine the flow direction on the transmission line?
You could try searching online and see if there’s a flow chart of the transmission, specifying IN/OUT ports on the transmission
Another way can be by feel. Touch each of the transmission lines going to and from the radiator; if it’s liquid cooled. The hotter side will be COMING from the transmission and the cooler line will be GOING to the transmission.
The messy part would be to disconnect a transmission line, turn on the vehicle, and see which end of the hose the fluid will come out from. I only recommend this if you are flushing the transmission.
I have the same question!
@@temosgarage thanks. But which of the two should get the filter? I mean, do you want it going inline on the hot side coming from the transmission? Or inline going to the transmission?
@@elcolin_ I have it on the hot side, coming out the transmission, before it goes through the cooler. This way the cooler stays cleaner
Changing every 20-30K miles seems excessive. I would change it every 50-100K miles.
It’s approaching 35k miles and I haven’t changed it. I agree with you
I cut my trans filter open at 64k+ and it was packed.
Every vehicle is different on recommendations for fluid change intervals,it’s cheap insurance and with this filter at least you can pull it off and check the insides and see how things are looking. Coolers and filters will make the transmission last much much longer and transmission’s see so much hot and cold cycles that really take a toll on the fluid and if you drive short trips in cold or humid climates the transmission never gets hot enough to evaporate it out. But to each their own to me this filter is just a extra step that you can’t go wrong in doing to make the transmission and fluid last as long as possible.
Tom, for the cost I'd change it every year.......smh!
Welds will rust. Stainless will rust eventually. It's called Stainless for a reason and not rustless
Painted them and ran this one for 50k miles without any issues. Zero rust. I do live in a pretty dry area so that helps.
