I bought a Purolator P 1201 A/T filter ....

..for my Buick and there was no gasket in the box. When I went back there was no gasket in the box for the other one they had in stock. I know that it had one the last time I bought one. Is the transmission pan gasket now an extra cost item?

Did you check the Purolator website to see if it comes with the gasket, maybe some customer took it for a spare.

Thanks LT4 Vette,
I checked the website and it shows a gasket in the picture but states..Gasket-None-reuseable OE type.
This would be fine but the OE gasket is long gone. Purolator is trying to save a few cents and i'll buy Wix the next time.
