3rd Accumulator Exhaust Checkball (#7)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 GMC Sierra and 2010 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
After the downshift is completed, the #7 checkball unseats and allows the residual fluid in the 3rd accumulator fluid circuit to exhaust.
