Kia Sorento: Description

The hydraulic system consists of oil, an oil filter, an oil pump, and a valve body (valves and solenoid valves).

The oil pump is powered by the engine. ATF passes through the oil filter and gets distributed along the oil channels.

The oil becomes highly pressurized as it exits the oil pump and passes through the line pressure valve before being fed to the clutch & brake control valve, clutch, and brakes. TCM controls the hydraulic pressure using solenoid valves and controls clutch and brake operations.
