Info on the Aisin 81-40LE auto

[06T200]

Just to share, the 81-40LE (4 speed auto) is the same trans used in Toyota Yaris/echo, Ford Fusion, Fiesta and Suzuki swifts. Toyota calls it the U440E. A very common trans in fact, so parts are plenty.

For some exploded views and parts see the links below:

Thanks for posting this information! I've seen almost nothing related to Aveo transmission failures, but it's very helpful to know that the tranny can be sourced from so many other vehicles if something major happens to it.
