Description
4L80E / 4L85E Boost Valve Kit, Sonnax 34200-01K.
O-Ring style. Kit can be retrofit to back to ’89 units. See instructions for details.
Common problems in vehicles with GM 4L80-E and 4L85-E transmissions are uncontrollable line rise (upward of 500-600 psi), high line pressure in Reverse, buzzing noise, broken direct clutch drums and/or broken cases. Reverse boost oil causes these problems by entering the torque signal circuit due to a wear-created cross leak at the sleeve. The high line pressure and buzz are created when oil leaks past the aluminum balance plug. The Sonnax boost valve kit 34200-01K eliminates these problems.
