Anatomy of a Transmission: Oil Flow in the Pump-PR-Converter-Cooler Lube Circuits
Gregg Nader
The steel OE valve in Toyota/Lexus A340 and A340E/F/H Type 1 transmissions moves within the cast aluminum sleeve, wearing the sleeve. After this wear becomes severe, the valve no longer operates properly, causing soft upshifts and delayed engagement. Sonnax boost valve kit 97855-23K restores hydraulic integrity and prevents cross-leaks.
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.
