A hydraulic system for actuating a motor vehicle transmission by a control hydraulic power source that includes a control hydraulic pump for providing a high hydraulic pressure, a control pressure accumulator, and a low-pressure hydraulic pump for providing low-pressure volumetric flow of hydraulic fluid for operating a low-pressure hydraulic component. The low-pressure pump is operatively drivingly connected with the control hydraulic pump that is connected in a charged manner with the control pressure accumulator and with a transmission actuator.
