Description
The new small sized automatic transaxle (A4CF1) is for Gamma 1.6 gasoline engine.
The transaxle (A4CF1) is improved on the durability, fuel consumption and efficiency by the new main features as follo-
wed.
Functions
Item Contents
The full line pressure variable control operates in the valve body to improve the fuel consumption.
The long travel damper clutch is applied to the torque converter to improve the engine revolution cha-
nge reduction capability and the fuel consumption. (17~20°)
The oil pump of the trochocentric type is changed to parachoid type to improve the processing and th-
e capacity efficiency at the low RPM range.
Components The disc type return spring is applied to the low&reverse brake to improve the durability and reduce
the length.
The hydraulic centrifugal oil pressure balance piston is applied to the inside of clutch to improve the d-
urability and the shift control capability.
The low noise gear and the gear teeth face grinding are applied to the transfer driven gear to improve
the noise and the durability.
The oil pressure value set by TCM is coupled with the engine torque so that the stable shift feeling ca-
n be improved.
The engine torque reduction control operates effectively to improve the shift feeling and the durability.
It can be the skip shift of 1↔3 and 2↔4 when shifting.
The reverse clutch, not L/R brake is controlled when controlling the N→R shift so that the N→R shift f-
eeling can be improved.
Electronic contr-
ol system The range of the damper clutch direct control expands to improve the fuel consumption.
The current control chip is installed into the TCM to regulate the solenoid control current and control t-
he oil pressure securely according to the change of the temperature and voltage.
The FPC(Flexible Printed Circuit) harness is composed of the thin and flat copper in the insulating film
like electric wire.
The tachometer is operated by the change of the frequency forwarded from the TCM to the instrument
cluster, not vehicle speed sensor.

Oil pump
The oil pump is made of the aluminum (the reaction shaft support) to loose the weight and selects the parachoid type to
improve the processing and the capacity efficiency at the low RPM range.

Brakes
The automatic transaxle (A4CF1) uses the low and reverse brake and the second brake. The low and reverse brake is f-
ixed by the low and reverse annulus gear and overdrive planetary carrier at the 1st speed.
- The disc type return spring is applied to the low and reverse brake and it minimizes the slip of the friction material fr-
om the uniform spring operation power to improve the durability and reduce the length.
The overdrive sun gear is held on the transaxle case by the second brake at the 2nd speed.
AKGF021D
BKGF002C
Clutch
The multiple clutches and the one way clutch are used as the transaxle device.
The retainer of each clutch is composed of the precision sheet metal parts to realize the productivity and the light weight
.
The hydraulic centrifugal oil pressure balance device places inside the clutch assembly.
Generally the oil remained in the piston oil pressure chamber pushes the piston by the centrifugal force. But to prevent t
he piston from being pushed, the oil filled in between the piston and the return spring retainer occurs the centrifugal for-
ce and both of the power is offset so that the piston don't move. In result, it improves the durability and the shift control
ability.
BKGF003A
1. Underdrive Clutch
The underdrive clutch is engaged at 1st, 2nd and 3rd speed.
The driving force of input shaft is delivered to the underdrive sun gear.
The operating oil pressure in the underdrive clutch components operates between the piston and the retainer and push-
es the piston to the clutch discs to deliver the driving force from the retainer to the hub.
BKGF003B
2. Reverse clutch and overdrive clutch
The reverse clutch is engaged at the reverse and delivers the driving force of input shaft to the reverse sun gear.
The overdrive clutch is engaged at the 3rd and 4th speed and delivers the driving force of input shaft to the overdrive pl-
anetary carrier and the low and reverse annulus gear.
The operating oil pressure of the reverse clutch operates between the reverse clutch retainer and reverse clutch piston
and it has the whole overdrive clutch moved through hub splines.

NOTICE
Low fluid level can cause a variety of abnormal
conditions because it allows the pump to take in air
along with fluid. Air trapped in the hydraulic system
forms bubbles, which are compressible. Therefore,
pressures will be erratic, causing delayed shifting,
slipping clutches and brakes, etc. Improper filling
can also raise fluid level too high. When the
transaxle has too much fluid, gears churn up foam
and cause the same conditions which occur with low
fluid level, resulting in accelerated deterioration of
automatic transaxle fluid. In either case, air bubbles
can cause overheating, and fluid oxidation, which
can interfere with normal valve, clutch, and brake AKGF032W
