Symptoms:

  • Loss of lubrication oil to planetaries
  • Reverse drum, retainer & planet failure

Cause:

Excessive clearance between the overdrive piston retainer and intermediate shaft reduces lube flow to the gear train.

Correction:

Salvage the reverse drum, restore lube oil and prevent repeat failure by installing Sonnax oversized piston retainer kit.
