Symptoms:

  • Delayed Reverse
  • No 4th
  • No 5th
  • Direct clutch burned

Cause:

Wear at the reverse modulator valve bore due to constant oscillation allows leakage of variable solenoid feed and direct clutch apply pressure.

Correction:

Refurbish the valve bore and install the Sonnax reverse modular valve kit to restore proper hydraulic function and prevent future wear.
