Its an 2002 Audi A6 3.0 Quattro - 5 speed autogearbox

Engine code BBJ

Fault that came up on diagnostic machine is P0741 - torque convertor clutch solenoid

Need to know where it is situated in order for me to try another solenoid...

Been told that its on the valve body in gearbox, if thats true there is five or six solenoids on the valve body, which one?

 

Thanx

The related solenoid is N218 which is on the valve body behind the transmission pan with a red wire going to it. But the most common problem is the torque converter itself.
