So I just got the P0741: Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off code on my Silver 2003 RS6. The car itself doesn't have any noticeable symptoms. Drives fine. I did a data log and I don't see any strange RPM/Engine Load numbers. I don't have an advanced scan tool that would allow me to view the Converter RPM compared to the Input Shaft speed RPM. If anyone has had this error on this car and gone through the process of fixing it, I would greatly appreciate to hear your story.

Here is a link to the data log from my BlueDriver: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ERKYmO ... sp=sharing It's mostly highway driving between 60-80mph.

I’d do an atf and filter change to see how the fluid looks. Most of the time the torque converter dtc are the harbingers of box replacement.

and by box replacement, do you mean the torque converter or the entire trans?

Whole transmission. Where are you? USA? You’ve got some options out there.

Utah, USA.

Hi duocast.how did you get on with this trouble code in the end??curious to know as I have the same code now myself logged.
Regards

What is the mileage?

Robbie, I think you've got a strong case for getting your money back on the car.

I'm thinking so myself.he won't respond to any txts or calls so I think I'll have to seek legal advice now.

Gutted for you. Sounds like a proper dodgy dealer who knew he was punting a lemon. Hopefully you'll get satisfaction. Keep us updated.

I was fuming today when the car wouldn't start so enough was enough.i finally got hold of him and he has agreed to take it back and refund me.i really would of loved to keep the car but I just couldn't.it was going to start costing a fortune to fix and I still had to shell out 6600 to vrt it as its a UK car before I done a thing to it.am proper gutted and can't even think of anything else I want to hop into now after driving the rs.many thanks for all your help tho appreciate it

Just find a goodun to replace it with

I've been scared off for now.

Wheeler dealers are advertising one. Looks like it would be worth a look. It's on there Facebook page.

I think this is the best result in the circumstances. There are good cars out there, but I get why you might be reticent.

You could try an E92 M3. Good cars. Brutal performance and I reckon they will appreciate.
