For a torque converter transmission, a valve arranged to control the flow of fluid therein. Flow between five axially spaced apart ports, and in particular from a central port to a pair of adjacent control ports and from the control ports to respective adjacent vent ports is controlled by axially spaced apart disc valve elements operatively associated with one or more axially movable elongated members, each disc element being axially movable against a mating valve seat. The valve may control flow to the working chamber of the torque converter or serve other functions such as controlling the mode of operation of the torque converter.
