Archived from groups: alt>autos>audi (more info?)

I have gotten some error codes on an S4 I recently bought used. The
code is P0741. It referrs to the "T/C clutch performance or stuck
off".
Googling the web I see fixes from -add trans fluid to replace the
transmission. Anyone here have any experiance with this code. This S4
has the V6 and 5 speed auto trans. I have not had the chance to check
the fluid yet so it may be that simple. Too cold to get out there and
crawl under it, temp in the single digits lately and no room in the
garage. I have put several thousand miles on it since purchase and it
performs fine. I have reset the code and it comes back in a few
hundred miles but I can't sense any difference whether the CEL is on
or off. I will check the fluid level this W/E. Thanks.

I believe the code is for a bad torque converter

Specifically, the code is for a leaking seal buried deep inside the TC
and seal is not user replaceable.

Some folks with this code report slightly higher RPM's on the highway
and slightly higher trans fluid temps due to TC seal leaking. It is not
usually a screaming panic to replace so you should have time to plan and
prepare. It's a bit of a job to replace TC so consider installing a
good one when the time comes. Among others, 3zero3 is a good place to
start for an upgraded TC.

Follow Bentley Manual or similar for Trans Fluid level checks as it
must be performed when trans fluid is within a specific warm temp range
in order to obtain correct volume. To add ATF fluid, you'll need a ~1
foot length tube with a 100 degree or more bend at the upper end and
attached to a fluid pump to push fluid up inside vertical fill tube
which is accessible from bottom of trans.

If you want a good selection id try a parts locator. One place that can
find you a good short or long block for a ' www.swengines.com
' (http://www.texas-junkyards.com) is 'TEXAS junkyards'
(http://www.texas-junkyards.com), Junk Yards in TEXAS TX salvage
recycler. They have a link somehow to multiples of thousands of
recycling centers and will locate the best one for you.
