Some A4LD valve body assemblies do not use a check ball to cushion reverse engagement. These valve bodies are equipped with a reverse engagement control valve. Inspect your valve body for the correct assembly using the 3 drawings provided. Do not leave out the check ball on valve bodies that do not have this valve. If the reverse engagement control valve is stuck you may have no reverse.
