Shift Pressure, Function
Operation
The shift pressure is determined by the shift pressure regulating solenoid valve (Y3/6y2) and the shift pressure
regulating valve.
The shift pressure:
Regulates the pressure in the activating shift element during the shift phase.
Determines together with the modulating pressure the pressure reduction at the deactivating shift element

Modulating Pressure, Function
Operation
The modulating pressure influences the size of the working pressure and determines together with the shift
pressure the pressure regulated at the overlap regulating valve.
The modulating pressure is regulated at the modulating pressure regulating solenoid (Y3/6y1), which is under
regulating valve pressure. The modulating pressure via variable and relative to the engine load.

Regulating Valve Pressure, Function
Operation
The regulating valve pressure is regulated at the regulating valve pressure regulating valve depending on the
working pressure up to a maximum pressure of 8 bar. It supplies the modulating pressure regulating solenoid
valve (Y3/6y1), the shift pressure regulating solenoid valve (Y3/6y2) and the shift valve pressure regulating
valve.

Shift Valve Pressure, Function
Operation
The shift valve pressure is derived from the regulating valve pressure, regulated at the shift valve pressure
regulating valve and is then present:
1-2 And 4-5 Shift Solenoid Valve (Y3/6Y3)
3-4 Shift Solenoid Valve (Y3/6Y4)
2-3 Shift Solenoid Valve (Y3/6Y5)
Torque Converter Lockup PWM Solenoid Valve (Y3/6Y6)
3-4 And 2-3 Shift Pressure Valve Shift Valve
The shift valve pressure controls the command valves via the upshift/downshift solenoid valves.

When the multiple-disc brake (B) is engaged, the working pressure (p-A) is applied to the end face of the shift
valve (29) via the command valve (31). See Fig. 140
. Its shift condition is retained in the shift phase, whilst the
shift element pressure acting on the end face and which is variable during the shift phase is replaced by a
corresponding, constant pressure.
When the multiple-disc clutch (K) is engaged (K) the end face of the shift pressure shift valve (29) is
depressurized during the stationary and shift phases, here the shift condition is also retained during the shift
phase.

Structure
The torque converter lockup PWM solenoid valve (Y3/6y6) is sealed off to the valve body of the shift plate (2a)
by an O-ring (34) and a seal (arrow). See Fig. 141
. The contact springs (32) on the PWM converter lockup
solenoid valve (Y3/6y6) engage in a slot in the conductor tracks (33). The force of the contact spring (32)
ensures safe contacts.

Oil Level Control, Function
Operation - The oil level control system seals the opening between the oil gallery and gearset chamber so that
the rotating gearsets do not splash about in oil as the oil level rises. The oil level control reduces power loss and
prevents oil from being thrown out of the transmission housing at high oil temperatures.
