Self Study Program 851303 – Four-Speed Automatic Transmission

VW SSP

VAG SSP 851303. The four-speed automatic transmission has received many upgrades since it was first introduced in 1990. Changes have been made to the way range shifts are controlled, the method used to mechanically bypass the torque converter, to the internal gear ratios, and to many other systems, all the while maintaining the basic external appearance of the original.

This course will enable you to:

  • Discuss the history of the four-speed automatic transmission
  • Locate the four-speed automatic transmission components
  • Discuss the purpose of the four-speed automatic transmission components

These changes resulted in different versions (phases) of the transmission; the first of which is referred to as ‘Phase 0’ (zero).

The four-speed automatic transmission utilizes just one planetary gearset. Combined with three clutches (K1, K2, and K3), two brakes (B1 and B2), and one freewheeling clutch (F),  this Ravigneaux gearset produces four forward and one reverse range, plus Manual Low.
