Anatomy of a Transmission: Oil Flow in the Pump-PR-Converter-Cooler Lube Circuits
Gregg Nader
In Aisin AW 55-50SN and 55-51SN units, bore wear at the lockup control valve in listed units results in loss of torque converter clutch control. The TCC can remain applied transferring shift shock, or loss of lockup control can result in RPM fluctuations. Sonnax oversized lockup control valve and boost valve kit 59947-29K restores control of the TCC. Proper TCC control eliminates the shift shock and RPM fluctuations associated with a worn lockup control valve.
F-15741-TL29PL is required for securing small No. 2 rear control valve body to VB-FIX.
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.
