| Description |
| • |
The valve body mounted is inside the transaxle.
|
| • |
The valve body is essential to automatic transaxle control and consists
of various valves used to control the oil feed from the oil pump.
|
| • |
Specifically, these valves consist of pressure regulator valves, oil
redirection valves, shift valves, and manual valves.
|
| • |
The body also features electronic solenoid valves that ensure smooth
gear changes.
