2-3 Accumulator

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Pontiac G5 and 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Direct clutch feed fluid is also routed to the 2-3 accumulator piston. This fluid pressure moves the piston against a combination of spring force and the 2-3 accumulator feed fluid pressure. This action absorbs the initial direct clutch fluid pressure in order to cushion the direct clutch apply. the movement of the 2-3 accumulator piston forces some of the fluid out of the accumulator.
