CD for the F5A51 a five speed, Front Wheel Drive transaxle, with fully electronic controls for the upshifts and downshifts, with 5th gear being overdrive. The individual gear ratios are achieved through three planetary gear sets. The components of the planetary gear sets are driven or held by means of four multi-plate drive clutch packs, two multi-plate brake clutch packs, one reduction brake band and two one way clutches. To minimize fuel consumption, the torque converter clutch is applied by the PCM, depending on throttle position and vehicle speed. These units are currently found in several Mitsubishi models, some Hyundai models and some Kia models. The 2007 and later Hyundai models and the 2006 and later Kia models have an added line pressure control solenoid, along with a revised shift solenoid application.
