Planetary Gear Sets
The individual gears are shifted by means of 2 planetary gear sets, connected one behind the other.
Clutches and Bands
The individual ratios are selected by means of 4 multi-plate clutches, a brake band and a roller One-Way Clutch (OWC) .
The components are controlled by the PCM through Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) solenoid valves.
