A/T CONTROL SYSTEM
Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
Shift MechanismNCS0001L
The A/T uses compact triple planetary gear systems to improve power transmission efficiency, simplify con-
struction and reduce weight.
It also employs an optimum shift control and super wide gear ratios. They improve starting performance and
acceleration during medium and high-speed operation.

Reverse brake (5) R/B Fastens the rear carrier (15).
Forward brake (6) Fwd/B Fastens the mid sun gear (17).
Low coast brake (7) LC/B Fastens the mid sun gear (17).
1st one-way clutch (8) 1st OWCAllows the rear sun gear (16) to turn freely forward relative to the mid sun gear
(17) but fastens it for reverse rotation.
Forward one-way clutch (9) Fwd OWCAllows the mid sun gear (17) to turn freely in the forward direction but fastens it
for reverse rotation.
3rd one-way clutch (10) 3rd OWCAllows the front sun gear (11) to turn freely in the forward direction but fastens
it for reverse rotation.

POWER TRANSMISSION
“N” Position
Since both the forward brake and the reverse brake are released, torque from the input shaft drive is not trans-
mitted to the output shaft.
“P” Position

The same as for the “N” position, both the forward brake and the reverse brake are released, so torque
from the input shaft drive is not transmitted to the output shaft.

The parking pawl linked with the selector lever meshes with the parking gear and fastens the output shaft
mechanically.

“D1 ” Position

The forward brake and the forward one-way clutch regulate reverse rotation of the mid sun gear.

The 1st one-way clutch regulates reverse rotation of the rear sun gear.

The 3rd one-way clutch regulates reverse rotation of the front sun gear.

During deceleration, the mid sun gear turns forward, so the forward one-way clutch idles and the engine
brake is not activated.

“M1 ” Position

The front brake fastens the front sun gear.

The forward brake and the forward one-way clutch regulate reverse rotation of the mid sun gear.

High and low reverse clutch connects the rear sun gear and the mid sun gear.

The low coast brake fastens the mid sun gear.

During deceleration, the low coast brake regulates forward rotation of the mid sun gear and the engine
brake functions.

“D2 ” Position

The forward brake and the forward one-way clutch regulate reverse rotation of the mid sun gear.

The 3rd one-way clutch regulates reverse rotation of the front sun gear.

The direct clutch is coupled, and the rear carrier and rear sun gear are connected.

During deceleration, the mid sun gear turns forward, so the forward one-way clutch idles and engine
brake is not activated.
