30-40LS transmission vs 30-40LE transmission
Does anyone have any further information on the differences between the 2?
I'm used to the 30-40LE transmission. However, I have a 30-40LS sitting here.
Google provides some information, but not tons.
The LS came in the VVTi cars, so I'm curious to know exactly what changed.
According to Aisin (manufacturer):
It sounds to me like it's just a fancy name for having the main ECU also control the transmission to some degree. If that was the case, it might not be much different internally than the 3040LE.

wake the dead wake the dead. i have my 30-40ls sitting here opened up with the valve body removed. i'm curious about differences also. the valve body is certainly different with a few extra solenoids. wonder if this is the lock slip control, or perhaps a tiptronic sport shift function in later model aristos? toyota went to the length of changing the code to an "s" for some kinda reason

30-40LS is the Tiptronic version of the A340E.
Loads of information here if the page works for you?

30-40LS vs 30-40LE
I want to change the fluid and filter in my 2000 toyota aristo jzs161. is the trans filter the same part number for the 30-40LS as it is for 30-40LE?
Thanks
