Tooling Required
8L45 8L90 Oversized S2 S3 S4 TCC Clutch Control Valve Kit
Burnt clutches, poor shift quality and TCC apply or release issues are common complaints with GM 8L45 and 8L90 transmissions. These issues can be caused by worn clutch control bores allowing valuable clutch apply fluid pressure to leak, reducing the force needed to apply the clutches. Reconditioning the bores and installing Sonnax oversized S2/S3/S4/TCC clutch control valve kit 154740-43K restores proper function.
- Hardcoat anodized aluminum valve combats premature wear
