Symptoms:

  • Converter concerns
  • Lockup concerns

Cause:

Wear around the accumulator valve allows critical fluid to leak past and directly to exhaust/sump.

Correction:

Eliminate converter and lockup concerns by installing Sonnax drop-in TCC accumulator valve kit that uses an O-ring to eliminate leakage in a worn bore.

Warning:

The edge of the bore should be chamfered to ease installation and avoid tearing the O-ring.

Excess wear at the accumulator bore or on the critical diameter of the accumulator valve is common in Chrysler 45/545/65/66/68RFE transmissions. Wear at this bore allows oil to exhaust, resulting in converter and lockup concerns. Installing Sonnax drop-in TCC accumulator valve kit 44912-18K eliminates leaks to restore normal operation.

  • O-Ring incorporated for positive sealing, even in worn bores
  • Annular grooves help center the accumulator valve in bore to reduce future side-load wear
  • Steel accumulator valve combats premature wear
  • Thicker accumulator spring retainer to replace thinner damaged OE accumulator spring retainer
  • Drop-in Zip Valve™ parts install quickly and easily
