Abstract
In an automatic transmission mounted on a front engine and front drive vehicle, a valve body is positioned not to be obstructed by a vehicle side subframe, and lower sections of the transaxle casing, transaxle housing and rear cover form an oil reservoir space. Also, the lower part of the front differential device is isolated from the oil reservoir space by an oil reservoir plate and a side weir formed on the transaxle housing, but oil flows partly between the isolated areas. By this structure, the oil reservoir space is formed extending generally over the lower part of the integrated casing, and, in particular, is formed from the large space below the transaxle casing and the housing.
