AS68RC, A465

Symptoms:

• Downshift clunk
• Flare shifts
• Harsh shifts
• Shift concerns

Cause:
Wear at the clutch control plunger valve sleeve affects apply and release rate of the clutches and brakes.

Correction:
The replacement Sonnax sleeve and valve corrects circuit pressure loss and restores control of clutch and brake apply and release.

Vehicles equipped with an AS68RC transmission utilize two clutch control valve line-ups to control the application of the various clutches and brakes required for smooth gear changes. In Dodge versions, a clutch control plunger valve and sleeve aid in control of the clutch control valve. This plunger valve and sleeve allows solenoid feed and clutch apply pressures to gradually apply the appropriate clutch or brake. The sleeve is prone to wear due to constant plunger valve oscillation, which can lead to a variety of shift complaints as the two clutch control valves stroke to apply and release the various clutches and brakes. Replacing worn sleeves and installing Sonnax clutch control plunger valve kit restores proper valve control and shift operation.
