Symptoms:

  • Inconsistent shift quality
  • Flare shifts
  • Clutch failure
  • Bump shifts
  • Bang shifts
  • Shift codes

Cause:

Wear at the various end plugs allows critical circuit leakage of solenoid modulator, secondary regulator, and line pressures. These pressure losses impair control of the clutches, resulting in various shift complaints and eventual failure.

Correction:

Install Sonnax drop-in O-ringed end plugs to prevent oil pressure loss at the plugs.
