Hey guys so recently I just got this code about the torque converter which is stuck off/ no power being transferred. I did clear and change the fluid 2 times hoping for some miracle and sadly nothing.
What are my options? Im guessing ill have to change the trans? The trans in the car is a khd and I do have spare trans which is a jms.
Does the car drive? If yes, check for torque converter slip in VCDS. Maybe only TC solenoid failed?
It does drive and what would I be looking for on the slip on vcds? Also prior to this code Its been slipping because i would feel it when i drove but whenever the trans would get warm id say around 75c it would occur and i did change fluid a couple times due to that but now It seems to be constant ever since the code has came. Since the code came i changed fluid two times and no luck.
Im just happy I fixed the s8 in time
It’s a seal that goes bad in the Tq converter. If you’re getting the code you can drive it but it’s going to get worse and eventually leave you stranded. Depending on where you live. You can get it rebuilt. They can give you a little more spice with a rebuild as well.
