transmission functions. The Mechatronic valve block comprises the following components:
TCM
Pressure regulator solenoids
Shift control solenoid
Damper
Hydraulic spool valves
Selector valve
Temperature sensor
Turbine speed sensor
Output shaft speed sensor.
Sensors
Speed Sensors
The turbine speed sensor and the output shaft speed sensor are Hall effect type sensors located in the Mechatronic valve block
and are not serviceable items. The TCM monitors the signals from each sensor to determine the input (turbine) speed and the output shaft speed.
The turbine speed is monitored by the TCM to calculate the slip of the torque converter clutch and internal clutch slip. This signal allows the TCM to accurately control the slip timing during shifts and adjust clutch application or release pressure for overlap shift control.
The output shaft speed is monitored by the TCM and compared to engine speed signals received on the CAN bus from the ECM. Using a comparison of the two signals the TCM calculates the transmission slip ratio for plausibility and maintains adaptive pressure control.
Temperature Sensor
The temperature sensor is also located in the Mechatronic valve block. The TCM uses the temperature sensor signals to determine the temperature of the transmission fluid. These signals are used by the TCM to control the transmission operation to promote faster warm-up in cold conditions or to assist with fluid cooling by controlling the transmission operation when high
fluid temperatures are experienced. If the sensor fails, the TCM will use a default value and a fault code will be stored in the TCM.
Damper
There is one damper located in the valve housing. The damper is used to regulate and dampen the regulated pressure supplied
via EPRS. The damper is load dependent through modulation of the damper against return spring pressure.
The damper comprises a piston, a housing bore and a spring. The piston is subject to the pressure applied by the spring. The
bore has a connecting port to the function to which it applies. Fluid pressure applied to the applicable component (i.e. a
clutch) is also subjected to the full area of the piston, which moves against the opposing force applied by the spring. The
movement of the piston creates an action similar to a shock absorber, momentarily delaying the build up of pressure in the
circuit. This results in a more gradual application of clutches improving shift quality.
Spool Valves
The valve block spool valves control various functions of the transmission. The spool valves are of conventional design and are
operated by fluid pressure.
Each spool valve is located in its spool bore and held in a default (unpressurized) position by a spring. The spool bore has a
number of ports which allow fluid to flow to other valves and clutches to enable transmission operation. Each spool has a
piston which is waisted to allow fluid to be diverted into the applicable ports when the valve is operated.
When fluid pressure moves a spool, one or more ports in the spool bore are covered or uncovered. Fluid is prevented from
flowing or is allowed to flow around the applicable waisted area of the spool and into another uncovered port. The fluid is
either passed through galleries to actuate another spool, operate a clutch or is returned to the fluid pan.

Exhaust System - V8 5.0L Petrol/V8 S/C 5.0L Petrol - Exhaust System - System Operation and Component Description
Description and Operation
CATALYTIC CONVERTERS System Operation
In the catalytic converters, the exhaust gases are passed through honeycombed ceramic elements coated with a special
surface treatment called 'washcoat'. The washcoat increases the surface area of the ceramic elements by a factor of
approximately 7000. On top of the washcoat is a coating containing palladium and rhodium, which are the active constituents
for converting harmful emissions into inert by-products. The palladium and rhodium add oxygen to the carbon monoxide and
the hydrocarbons in the exhaust gases, to convert them into carbon dioxide and water respectively.
SEMI-ACTIVE MUFFLER VALVE (5.0L SUPERCHARGER VEHICLES ONLY)
The semi-active muffler valve is operated by the pressure in the exhaust system. At low engine speeds the valve head is
closed or partially closed to provide a more refined noise quality. At higher engine speeds the increased pressure within the
exhaust system opens the valve head to provide a more sporting noise. This is achieved by the valve, which once open, allows
the exhaust gasses to by-pass the baffle tubes and plates in the rear silencer.
Component Description
FRONT SECTION - 4.2L NATURALLY ASPIRATED (NAS ONLY) - From 2010MY
The front section comprises two separate pipes, each incorporating a catalytic converter. Each catalytic converter has a welded
inlet pipe with a flange. The inlet pipe is flared into a cone which mates with the exhaust manifold. The flange has two holes
which locate on studs in the exhaust manifold and is secured with flanged nuts. Each catalytic converter is fitted with a pre
and post catalyst HO2S (heated oxygen sensor).
Each catalytic converter has a curved outlet pipe which mates with the respective inlet pipe for the applicable resonator on the
center section. The joint on each pipe is secured with a clamp.

Semi-Active Muffler Valve
NOTE: LH silencer shown, RH (right-hand) silencer similar
Item Description 1 Outer case 2 Overpipe 3 Valve cage 4 Semi-active muffler valve assembly A semi-active muffler valve is located in the rear of each rear silencer. The valve comprises a valve head, a valve shaft, a shaft
guide, a housing shell, a membrane and a spring. The valve head is connected to the membrane by the valve shaft which is
located within the shaft guide. The valve shaft is attached to the membrane with a pin. The membrane is located inside the
housing shell and is held in position by the spring.
The valve head is located in and seals against the over pipe. When the exhaust gas pressure increases and overcomes the
spring pressure, the valve head is lifted and the gasses by-pass the valve and are expelled though slots in the valve cage into
the rear chamber and into the outlet pipe.
When the semi-active muffler valve is closed the exhaust gasses are expelled from the inlet tube through the perforations. The
exhaust gasses then pass through perforations in the outlet pipe and are expelled from the silencer via the single outlet pipe
and 2 polished stainless steel finishers.
When the semi-active muffler valve is open, the exhaust gasses are released into the rear chamber. The exhaust gasses then
pass directly into the open end of the outlet pipe and are expelled from the silencer via the outlet pipe and the 2 polished
stainless steel finishers. With the valve open, the gasses reduce through the baffle plates and tube perforations giving the
exhaust note a more 'sporty' sound.

8 LH (left-hand) fuel level sensor 9 RH (right-hand) fuel level sensor and fuel pump module 10 RCM (restraints control module)
OPERATION System Operation
The fuel pump is a variable-speed rotary-vane type, which operates in a fuel pump module located in the RH side of the fuel tank. A venturi transfer pump is located in the RH side of the tank. The fuel pump module is secured in the fuel tank with a bayonet style locking ring that is welded into the tank structure. The fuel pump module has an integral top plate for the
external pipe work and electrical connectors.
Fuel level is biased towards the RH compartment in the fuel tank by drawing fuel through the internal cross over pipe via the jet pump, which serves to deliver a constant supply of fuel to the transfer pump and swirl pot assembly. High pressure fuel
from the fuel pump is directed through the jet pump's orifice, creating a low pressure area to be formed in the cross over pipe.
The fuel is drawn into this low pressure area in the cross over pipe and directed into the swirl pot delivery pipes.
Fuel is pumped from the fuel pump to the fuel rail via the integral filter and pressure relief valve.
The pressure relief valve assists engine starting by retaining a pre-set fuel pressure in the supply pipe and fuel rail. The
pressure relief valve also limits fuel rail pressure due to temporary vapor increase in hot conditions and pressure caused by
sudden load changes, for example, a fully open to closed throttle transition.
To meet ORVR (on-board refueling vapor recovery) requirements, the fuel tank and associated components are designed to
minimize fuel vapor loss during refueling. This is achieved by preventing fuel vapor from the fuel tank venting directly to the
atmosphere. Instead fuel vapor is directed into the EVAP (evaporative emission) charcoal canister where it is stored before
being purged at intervals to the engine’s intake manifold.
North American Specification (NAS) vehicles feature additional connections and pipes at the rear of the filler head and also
incorporates a Diagnostic Monitoring Tank Leakage (DMTL) pump for leak detection requirements.
