One-Way Clutch - Planetary (Low)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and 2006 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: For component location, refer to TRANSMISSION .

The planetary (low) one-way clutch is a roller clutch that holds the planetary gearset in 1st gear, (D) and D ranges. During automatic coasting downshifts into 1st gear ((D) and D ranges), the planetary one-way clutch freewheels so there is no engine braking.
