Disadvantages of the Aisin AW60-41LE gearbox

  • It’s not used with powerful engines, and the torque converter clutch wears out after 250,000 km;
  • And if the lubricant isn’t changed, the valve body will become clogged with wear debris, causing vibrations;
  • If the torque converter clutch wears critically, vibrations will damage the oil pump bushing;
  • At high mileage, the wiring and input and output speed sensors are also replaced.
