Park or Neutral - Engine Running (L4 Hybrid): Notes

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.

When the gear selector lever is in the Park (P) position and the engine is running, fluid is drawn into the oil pump. Line pressure is directed to the pressure regulator valve.

Under certain conditions the hybrid vehicles engine will shut off and the electric auxiliary transmission fluid pump will start running to keep the transmission pressurized and ready for the engine restart. This engine off condition is a fuel economy feature and the L4 hybrid transmission's electric auxiliary fluid pump is an enabling component.
