So unless you have access to a BUDS computer you will need the dealer do the job.
    No BUDS done, no Air, and no problems when I did mine and that was 10,000 miles ago. In fact the person who sold me the filter is also the head Spyder tech at my dealer and if BUDS was required he would have told me.

    Hello PW,
    I'm about to replace my transmission filter. When you do a 1330 transmission filter replacement, is the gasket alone adequate to seal the cover plate against leaks? Or do I need to get some gasket sealer before I replace mine?

    The seal on the filter is all that is needed. I have done 4 changes and never used any additional sealer. Never had a leak. It is a messy job so I lay a large piece of cardboard down to catch any oil that gets past my pan.
    Run the engine for a while to ensure mo leaks before putting the Tupperware back on - this also purges any air that maybe in the system.
