This explains the exact symptoms my 1998 acura tl 2.5l is facing - I already cleaned up the IACV, EGR, intake manifold, changed air filter, cleaned throttle body, cleaned MAF, checked MAP, spark plugs + gap good, basically new distributor + plugs, fresh transmission fluid and filter. (And yes that old transmission fluid absolutely reeked along with the old differential fluid.)
Did a basic inspection of that awfully placed TCCS - couldn't find my DMM but the screens were clean of any debris. Only unfortunate part is that solenoid ain't cheap at all so gl to me.
My car’s TCC not engaging and there are no codes apparently on OBD scanner.
What about p2759 when the solenoid experiences electric problems. I have an alternator that has 146k miles (end of life) getting it replaced on monday. I'm the laborer
Hi everyone!.
I have a Benz A170, W169, year 2005 (Automatic), still running and serviced regularly.
The issue with the car presently, is that when starting (fresh from rest), the transmission is somewhat 'choked' and the drive reduced.
The indication then is 'Transmission..'.
But, once the engine is turned off (obviously) and started anew , after a few minutes, everything works properly. When 'warm', car is ok.
Recently, this has happened more than once during the same journey, after 'fresh' start. Again, after turn-off and turned back on after a few minutes, it worked good!
The fluid level is ok too.
Note that this only happens after 'cold' start. System hot - no problem.
If anyone could comment and share similar experience, it will enable me to understand the issue, please. Many thanks!!!
I am so grateful for this wonderful video. There are the symptoms you mentioned, when my warning light comes on, there are harsh gear shifts and complex contractions, but when the fault goes out, everything is fine. I used it like this a few times and now I was stuck on a hill, it didn't want to enter, I smelled the brake pads, I pulled into the parking lot without pushing any further. Now the fault comes on at the first start and the car is having a hard time driving. Do you think I have caused bigger problems? Could my luck up solenoid be damaged because I added 500ml too much to the transmission oil? My volvo 850 is Aısin aw50-42
Sorry for the English translation. In summary, I think my TCS solenoid is broken and I used it like this for a while, but now the fault is constantly on and my vehicle does not want to move. I'm worried that I've caused a larger mechanical failure.
Good video, friend, a question...My Dodge Journey does not have codes, I put it in gear and it does not move forward or backward if I mark the changes on the dashboard, what could it be?
My car had this same issue. I had a p0744 code and service engine soon/check engine light on my car for 5 days when it was still running till recently it broke down this past Friday and does not move
I have outlander 2011 CVT and have code P0740 Lock up solenoid circuit
Is it just the solenoid or the torque converter?But I don’t have any issues for idling,Limp,or any.Just doesn’t change the shift and it’s always stuck in the 1st gear either i use the manual shift still doesn’t shift but in the dashboard it is changing the number of shifting 1-5 but running in the 1st gear?Any experience kind of this problem same as mine?
Was the torque converter the problem?
My car can shift into drive reverse and all with ease but the car doesnt move. The car after sitting for a while had a chattering noise that WAS the torque converter. I replaced the transmission fluid with cvt transmission fluid (2010 nissan altima 3.5 sr v6 cvt) and the chattering is gone but the car still doesnt move. And it feels like the car is in neutral or park at any time. The rpm when the car is in gear on idle does go down but i dont feel the “hook up” thats what i refer as the slight jolt forward the car had when i use to put it in gear at a stop light from neutral into drive.
What did it end up being?
@@Robert-nh9cw torque converter failure far as we can tell
I traded it in for a gladiator lol. Have owned it for 12 years. Got my money worth
My 2000 Ford Ranger 3.0L will shift into Reverse and Neutral fine but it will die immediately when put in any forward gear. Will drive in Reverse as well. Could the Converter or the TCC solenoid be the possible issue. Truck was a gift and we found that no transmission filter was in it. We replaced the filter kit.
My 2002 pathfinder auto, stalls dies when put into drive or reverse. It's I'm shop now . Hoping for the best for both of us lol.
I've been doing so much research could be few things with these issues.
@@Johnsrt2023wishing you the best of luck too! I hope it’s fixed soon😊
@@westwaytrainingfacility3669 thanks bro you to!!
@johnsrt2023 what was it? im considering getting a 04Buick LaSabre to get back and forth to work. Its $700 but the car run in park cutd off when put in gear
@@jbvisiongod 3 mechnics saying touque converter for me. But idk.
I sold the truck.
Don't buy it
My 2015 Nissan rogue is showing p0744. Have had a few seemingly unrelated issues like a beat up flex plate and the shifting cable came completely free from mount due to stripped bolts, but other symptoms are mild so far. Could i replace the solenoid in it, even though it’s a CVT?
Yes nissan’s like your and mine (nissan altima 3.5L sr V6 cvt) have multiple solenoids one that is a torque converter lock up clutch solenoid and multiple others that are for shifting the car into “gears” that use hydraulic pressure with transmission fluid to “shift” my car doesnt move at all but it did have the same code yours has. P0744 and a few others more likely relating to battery voltage issue or wiring issue.
I hope your cvt valve body is easy to reach like mine. Also make sure to get 6 to 7 quarts of nissan brand or valvoline cvt transmission fluid at the ready if u do replace it because its better to replace it now sense ur gonna have to drain it anyway
@@brometheusthefirstbro4302that’s very informative, thanks for the heads up!
Ns-2 fluid is more viscous then ns-3
my 2014 jeep patriot sport starting decrease its speed from 70 to 40 and then shut off on me twice....after that it's been parked with an engine light on and a code of P0741 ... Not exactly sure if it's the solenoid or the actual Torque Converter clutch ( the big round Donut) 😢 Your advice would so very helpful
I would first replace TCC solenoid that is not to expensive comparing of replacing Torque converter. Let's face it even if it is torque converter after all you don't have to replace TCC again like I said I would go that way?
1999 Dodge Durango where is the solenoid located at inside the transmission or outside the transmission
Inside on the valve body it's a rectangle shape the has the connector on it that goes to the driver side of transmission
Thank you so much for that information I was thinking I had to pull the transmission out very good explanation and that video is fantastic thank you all very much

Hmmm so how do you know if its the t- converter or the solenoid? No slipping no limp mode but vibration ( strong) at specifically 40 to 55 m.p.h . And an underlying rumble at low speed low with low acceleration which vanishes when accelerate .
Kindly check your engine mounts. I had the same problem and it was engine mounts.
Sounds like a torque converter. Usually a sitter rumbling between 30-50 mph.
@@thinbrickspec77what if u replaced the transmission and the torque converter and still have that same issue @runoutofairydust4476 said
What was it for you, mine does the same and I have it apart now
@@thinbrickspec77 my car drives normal at speed and it jerks when accelerating and wants to die when I stop at a light. Is that just a tcc solenoid?
