A750E/A760E Toyota Transmission Filter & Pan Gasket Kit

Second-generation Tacomas, 4Runners from 2003 on, FJ Cruisers and the V8 Sequoia and Lexus GX470 all lean on the same Aisin five-speed, the A750E in two-wheel drive and the A750F in four-wheel drive. When one of these starts to engage slowly in the morning, shudders on the highway around lockup speed, or shifts harsh until it warms up, old fluid and a loaded strainer are the first things a good shop rules out. This kit replaces Toyota oil strainer 35330-60050 and includes the pan gasket, so it is everything you need besides fluid when the pan comes off.

What the filter does in an A750E or A750F

The strainer is bolted under the valve body and hangs in the pan. The pump draws all of its oil through it, then sends line pressure up to the valve body, where the shift solenoids and the linear solenoids for line pressure and lockup decide which clutch applies and how hard. The A750 uses flex lockup, slipping the converter clutch a controlled amount in the lower gears, and that strategy depends on clean fluid and steady supply pressure. When the strainer media loads with clutch dust and fine metal, the pump starts to cavitate, line pressure sags at idle and under load, and the fluid runs hotter, which ages it faster still.

Symptoms of a restricted or dirty filter

• A pause before Drive or Reverse takes, especially after the truck sits overnight
• Pump whine that climbs with engine rpm
• Harsh cold shifts that settle down once the fluid is warm
• Converter shudder at light throttle in the 30-45 mph lockup range
• Slipping or flare on the 2-3 or 3-4 shift when loaded or towing
• Lockup and pressure codes such as P2757 or P2714 that return after clearing

How to confirm before you buy

Start with fluid level and condition, checked the way your service manual describes for your truck at the specified fluid temperature. Then look at what is in the pan when it comes down. A light gray film on the magnets is normal; brass flakes, steel slivers or burnt friction lining mean there is internal wear that a filter will not cure. Do not let a lockup code push you straight to parts. Transmission Digest documented a 2005 Tundra with an A750F where the shop replaced the converter, then the valve body, then a new lockup solenoid, and P2757 still came back, which is why basics like fluid and line pressure come first. Our Toyota and Tacoma transmission service guide covers how old WS fluid shows up as shudder and cold shifts, and when fresh fluid fixes it.

Fitment

Toyota's parts catalog lists strainer 35330-60050 on the 2003-2024 4Runner (2.7L, 4.0L and 4.7L), 2007-2014 FJ Cruiser, 2005-2016 Tacoma, 2004-2010 Sequoia and the 2002-2007 Land Cruiser. The listing also covers the Tundra and the Lexus GX470 and LX470 that share the A750 family, as well as the A760E, A760F and A760H. It is a 20-bolt pan. Toyota used different strainers on the later six-speed AB60 trucks, so if you have a 2007-on Tundra, a 2008-on Sequoia or a 200-series Land Cruiser, check our AB60E/AB60F filter kit first. If in doubt, read the number off your old strainer or send us your year and VIN. More parts for this family are in the Aisin transmission collection.

Install notes

• Drain the fluid, remove the pan bolts and lower the pan level so the old fluid in it does not spill down your arm.
• Remove the old strainer and check that its seal came out with it before fitting the new one.
• Clean the pan and magnets completely, then lay the new gasket on a dry, clean pan rail.
• Run the pan bolts down in a crossing pattern to the service manual torque; overtightening distorts the rail and makes it weep.
• Refill with Toyota WS only (00289-ATFWS) and set the level at operating temperature. A second drain and fill later replaces the fluid left in the converter; our flush vs drain and fill guide explains why that matters on an older unit.

Not included: ATF, pan bolts and the drain plug gasket. If the shudder survives fresh fluid, the A750E lockup solenoid and a worn valve body are next on the list, and the A750F shift kit addresses the bore wear behind repeat pressure complaints during a rebuild or valve body service.

Does this fit my 2010 Tacoma 4.0L 4x4?

Yes, Toyota lists strainer 35330-60050 for the 2005-2016 Tacoma, and the 4x4 V6 uses the A750F. Check the number on your old strainer or send us your VIN if the truck has had a transmission swapped.

Is this the right filter for a 2008 Tundra 5.7L?

Usually not. The 5.7L Tundra uses the six-speed AB60, which takes a different strainer. Use our AB60E/AB60F filter kit for that truck.

What fluid and how much do I need?

Use Toyota WS, part 00289-ATFWS. A pan drop typically replaces only part of the total fill, so buy enough for the drain and fill plus the top-off, and set the final level hot as your service manual describes.

Will a filter change cause my old transmission to fail?

A filter and fluid change does not damage a healthy unit. A transmission that slips after a service was usually already worn; the fresh fluid just stopped masking it. Look at what is in the pan to judge the unit's condition.

Do I need a relearn after changing the filter?

Not for the filter itself. If you also replace solenoids or the valve body, reset the transmission adaptives with a scan tool and road test so the computer can relearn shift timing.
