PO740 Torque Converter Clutch Fault
 

hey there is some info about my 99 Acura TL 3.2 171000km

1. engine light came on Saturday 4th on the Gardiner from Ontario Place around 100km after spending about 40minutes in stop and go traffic. The TCS light came on as same time as the Engine Light

2. TCS light went off after I started the car again

3 When to Hideo Auto Centre for a diagnostic. The code was PO740 Torque Converter Clutch Fault. got the engine light turned off (still off)


Transmission history

Sometimes the clutch slip going from 1st gear to 2nd gear.
Sometimes the clutch shutters going from 1st to 2nd gear
Sometimes it makes a loud thud sound going from 1st to 2nd gear.

So what do I do next? Flush? Check Solenoids?
Where do I take it for service

thanks for your help

Check transmission fluid level and condition. Transmission fluid should be a light red in colour and needs to be flushed when it is turning to a darker red more of a brownish dark tinge to it. Also have you been keepign up with your regular transmission flushes or have they been drain and fills?
