Automatic Transmission/Transaxle: Description and Operation

GENERAL INFORMATION
There are several fundamental differences between the 4-speed automatic transmission 01M and the 096 automatic transmission. These changes are briefly mentioned below.

TRANSMISSION
The 4-speed automatic transmission 01M is equipped with 4 hydraulically activated forward gears. When the lock-up clutch is closed, these forward gears become mechanically driven gears by cutting out the torque converter slip.

TORQUE CONVERTER
The torque converter for the 01M transmission is equipped with a lock-up clutch. The lock-up clutch is closed depending on load and speed and drives 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears mechanically independent of slip.
