1-2 Accumulator

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Second clutch fluid is also routed to the 1-2 accumulator piston. A combination of second clutch fluid pressure and the 1-2 assist spring force moves the piston against this spring force and the 1-2 accumulator feed fluid pressure. This action absorbs the initial second clutch fluid pressure in order to cushion the second clutch apply. The movement of the 1-2 accumulator piston forces some of the fluid out of the accumulator.
