The Basic Parts of an Automatic Transmission (Part 2)

This is part two of my front wheel drive (FWD) automatic transmission dissection video. In this video I cover the operation of clutches, bands, accumulators, clutch drums, the oil pump, the valve body, valves, check balls, seals and ‘o’ rings, as well as the construction and function of many of the internal hard parts of an automatic transmission. To be honest a rear wheel drive transmission isn’t much different as many of the basic components are the same. I guess what I’m saying is that you could use the information in this video to have a basic understanding of a rear wheel drive automatic transmission also. It is just a basic overview of the main components. I don’t get into theory and operation so much. Just the general operation and identification of the parts. I may make more videos on this topic based on the comments I get so feel free to ask questions and perhaps I’ll answer them in a future video on this topic. There will also be a separate video on the parts and operation of the torque converter as well.
