Anatomy of a Transmission: Oil Flow in the Pump-PR-Converter-Cooler Lube Circuits

In Toyota/Lexus U760E and U760F units, the steel OE solenoid modulator valve is prone to side-loading in the bore. This side-loading action, combined with repeated oscillation of the valve, prematurely wears the cast aluminum bore. The result is line pressure leakage and excessive SL, SLT, and SLU solenoid pressure, which floods the solenoids and creates shift quality concerns, solenoid codes and deviation of proper control pressures available to various valves. Sonnax oversized solenoid modulator valve kit 47740-25K allows you to recondition the bore and install improved components to restore normal solenoid supply pressures.
Tool kit F-47740-TL24 can also be used to install oversized solenoid modulator valve kit 47740-24K.
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.
