Wabco 8995067114 Valve

Description

This Wabco valve is a critical component within a vehicle's drivetrain, specifically used in the gearbox to regulate fluid or air flow. It ensures proper gear engagement and smooth operation. This valve is manufactured to OE specification, providing reliable performance and durability. Measuring 12 x 12 x 19 mm, this component offers a precise fit and consistent functionality, enhancing the overall efficiency of the gearbox.

Key Features & Benefits

This valve basically controls the flow of transmission fluid. It directs where the fluid goes inside the gearbox, and how much goes where. It's not just a simple on – off thing, it modulates – meaning it can control the amount flowing, from a trickle to a full stream, depending on what the transmission needs. It's all about pressure and timing, making sure everything shifts smoothly. Think of it as a traffic cop inside your transmission. It’s directing the hydraulic fluid that’s responsible for getting the gears to engage. It's part of the system that enables the transmission to switch between gears – first, second, drive, reverse – everything. Without proper fluid control, those gears won’t mesh properly, and things will get jerky or won't work at all.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if this valve fails, you’ll notice if it’s a major failure pretty quickly. Harsh shifting, slipping gears, or the transmission not engaging at all are the big signs. Even a small problem, like a slow leak or partial blockage, can cause problems down the road, like overheating the transmission fluid, wearing out other parts, or just making everything feel rough. It acts like a shield, protecting the more expensive components of your transmission. Replacing it when it’s starting to fail is a lot cheaper than a full transmission rebuild, trust me. We carry a good selection of these over at Fixparts Online, and I can help you find the right one for your vehicle if you give me your make and model.
