Hello sir, I have a problem with my automatic transmission on a mercedes w203, It has a hard shift from 1st to 2nd gear when i press the throttle. (When i lightly press the pedal, it shifts normally like 30% of the time) I went to a mechanic and he said that the lines of oil flow are broken and said to replace the whole valve body, and somehow I don't believe thats the issue. I would really appreciate your advice and expertise. Thank you in advance

Absolutely amazing. I work in a metal stamping factory now and I'm trying to imagine how each individual part is made and it's just staggering to think about. The complexity of the case casting, the valve body casting etc. The guys who designed this thing are absolute geniuses. When I see this I'm amazed cars are as cheap as they are.

[@speedkar99]

I have a similar train of thought... Everytime I open something I examine it from a manufacturing perspective, and think of the scale of mass production, it's immense!

[@cyrusmanz2253]

ATs are really not as complicated as they seem on first glance.. First of all we have to appreciate the fact that with relatively small design differences, all auto transmissions are pretty much constructed on the same principles, with the caveat of electronics that have compacted the design of ATs considerably, when you consider that ATs were first produced when there was no electronics, back in 1948 when the first true AT was installed on production model Oldsmobile, when there was no calculators, desktop computers or CAD software. All designed by hand on drawing boards. So when a team of engineers design a new transmission, they are not designing it grounds up (the planetary gears, Systems of Limits and Fits, Spline housings, shafts, bearings and other machined or stamped parts are pretty much the same with variations in size. The same goes for castings. All aluminum castings are variations of the same thing. In fact CAD systems such as SolidWorks have built in elements for AT design as a standard feature. Anyway, these videos are absolutely awesome and I do hope that one day you will invest in an actual disassembly table so you won't have to sit on the ground for all this amazing work. Good job, man...Keep it up.

[@bigbluebuttonman1137]

Once you have the design worked out, it’s just a matter of getting the infrastructure to build it. That’s why the prototypes cost so much, while the production version-whatever we’re talking about-isn’t nearly as expensive.

Probably the best explanation of how the auto transmission works on the net. Simply superb. I am a professional Chemical engineer and have worked on cars all my life but understanding the automatic transmission still makes my head go in circles. For me the icing on the cake was the explanation about the transmission pump which no one else ever had done and I kept wondering where is the pump. It was important for me to know if its a positive displacement pump thus meaning you can't run it dry if you want to replace the fluid by keeping the engine running and using the tranny pump to discharge all of the approx. 6 quarts and then replace it. Replacing the oil with a dead engine only gets approx. 2 quarts out. Your tear down seemed like a GM tranny, would love to see a ZF tear down which will be similar to AISIN of Japanese cars. Love your review style sparkled with infrequent jokes & sarcasm.

Cool video! The parking/emergency brake pawl also uses a ratchet mechanism which prevents it from engaging if the output shaft is still rotating too fast due to the car being in motion. If you put your car in "P" while driving (which of course is not something you should really do!) then you'll hear a clicking sound which is due to the ratchet mechanism being deflected away from locking the pawl in position.

[@markrichards9646]

[@mrflamewars]

The big pistons in the bottom of the case are accumulators that are used to control shift feel and firmness. I prefer a good hard shift because it makes the thing respond faster and it wears the frictions less, but most people don't want to feel the shift at all :/

[@speedkar99]

Yes they are. It also controls the front band clutch to lock the drum

[@danhg3885]

This transmission does not have any accumulators in the case. The servo piston in the case controls the application of the front band. There is one small accumulator in the valvebody to control the forward engagement feel. Shift feel is completely electronically controlled in this model.

I think mine exited via the garage door. I never found it. I finally realized I didn't have to take that apart to get to the clutches. I began disassembling what you so easily disassembled and once I got to the clutches and realized I hadn't kept track of the order of things I'd removed, I put everything in the back of a pickup and visited my local junkyard.

You quoted as the discharge oil from pump goes through these small holes of shaft and finally "lock up" torque convertor. 2) I have seen a "cable" coming from automatic transmission to "throttle body"....what is that? 3) What is the purpose of "adaptor assembly"? Thanks for sparing your valuable time and keep your good work on....

You are welcome. To answer your questions, see my torque converter video and my FWD transmission videos linked in the video cards.

The mechanical one-way clutches have the same symbol that diodes use in electronic schematics...that's kind of mind-blowing
