Anatomy of a Transmission: Oil Flow in the Pump-PR-Converter-Cooler Lube Circuits
Gregg Nader
Toyota/Lexus vehicles with U140E, U140F, U240E and U241E transmissions may exhibit insufficient line rise in the drive ranges, excessively high pressures in Reverse and shift issues. This may be caused by continuous oscillation of the pressure regulator valve and boost valves causing severe wear. Sonnax oversized pressure regulator and boost valve kit 57917E-08K has upgraded materials to prevent wear and minimal clearances to restore proper hydraulic control.
Sonnax valve body layouts provide a detailed overview of individual units making it quick and easy to determine what’s available for the specific valve body you’re working on. See all Sonnax valve body layouts.
