Abstract

An oil temperature responsive hydraulic control system for an automatic transmission includes a hydraulic servo for applying/releasing a frictional engagement element; a pressure regulator valve for regulating oil pressure fed to the hydraulic servo; and a signal pressure oil passage for applying a pressure regulating signal pressure to the pressure regulator valve. A control valve is arranged in the signal pressure oil passage for changing the effective diameter of the signal pressure oil passage responsive to change in oil temperature.
