Contains th
e hydraulic system pump.
Contains
th
e fluid temperature sensor.
The epicyclic geartrain:
Provi des fi
ve forward gears and Reverse.
Has
h
ydraulically actuated, multi-disk clutches, to select the required gear ratios.
Feature
s clutch-to-clutch operation to permit
gear shifts for uninterrupted power flow.
The electro-hydraulic control unit:
Is lo c
ated in the lower part of
the unit, within the fluid pan.
Is controlled
by the TCM (transmissio
n control module), and the manual selector valve which is cable operated.
Re
gulates the flow of fluid to the ge
artrain clutches via three solenoid-operated valv es and the manual selector
valve.
Has fi ve pressure
regulators for controll
ing fluid pressures within the system.
Is con
nected to the TCM via a 16-way connector mounted on
the left-hand side of the transmission casing. Refer to
Connector Pins Identification, Section 307-01A.
The hydraulic system pump:
Is l o
cated at the front of the transmission casing.
Is dri
v
en from the impeller hub,
pressurising the fluid whenever the engine is running.
Supplie
s fluid under pressure to the torq
ue converter, geartrain, electro-hydr aulic control unit and the lubrication
circuit.
D r
aws fluid from the fluid pa
n below the transmission casing, through a filter.
The rear extension housing:
Is bolt
ed to the rear of the transmission casing.
Provides the rear engine / transmi
ssion mo
unting point; refer to section 303-01.
Carrie
s the transmission output shaft oil seal.
Filled-for-l
i
fe Fluid System
The
transm
ission is 'filled for life' and
does not require fluid changes, except where extreme driving conditions prevail.
Routine level checking is not required and a dipstick is not pr ovided. A level / filler plug is fitted for level checking and
replenishment, following service actions; see 303-01 General Procedures.

5. Use tool 307 - 356 to remove the coupling nut.
6. Remove tool 205 - 053 from the coupling.
7. Remove the drive coupling from the housing.
Hold the housing assembly in a vice with soft jaws fitted
and pull the co upling free.
8. Remove the housing oil seal.
Use a suitable seal puller.
9. Clean the oil seal mating faces.
1. Install a new housing oil seal.
1. Lubricate the oil se al prior to fitting.
2. Using tool 307 - 358, fit the oil seal.
2. Fit the drive coupling to the housing.

Hold the housing assembly in a vice with soft jaws fitted
and carefully insert the coupling.
Fit tool 205 - 053 to the coupling.
3. Use tool 307 - 356 to tighten th e coupling nut to the specified
torque figure.
4. Stake the coupling nut at two positions.
5. Refit the rear extension housing. Refer to Operation 44.20.19.
6. Check the transmission fluid level. Refer to Operation
44.24.02.
