i owe you money because all the videos you make,I'm learning a lot from you and I'm making money. I have 3 kids and a wife but my bmw 328i 2000 is like another son of mine. I live in Seattle Washington and once a year we go on a vacation to California. I hope someday I can go to your shop because you are like a movie star for me.

Thank you for sharing. Yes sir, you are 100% spot on with this. A short time after buying our used E46 this happened to us. We were steered to a Specialized Transmission shop just outside Los Angeles. $2300 later all was perfect. At the time the car was a low mileage example but I still made it a point to replace the rear crankshaft seal, related gaskets, transmission mounts and some hardware when the transmission was removed and reinstalled. Money well spent.

Hey @50sKid, would love for you to drop your 2 cents on this. My zf-5hp19, W8 Passat, showing the code, however it isn't slipping quite enough to reflect on the tachometer. Are you saying this kit could prevent further damage and keep the transmission alive or am I a goner? My specific code description says: P0741 Torque Converter Circuit Perfomance or Stuck Off Edit: Nevermind, my RPM's on the freeway going 80 are 3,000, time for a new torque converter.

Jason I have been watching your videos for quite some time. My BMW 503i 2001 is throwing P0741. I drove at 80MPH and the RPM is around 2700. Should I change the torque converter or just the pressure regulator valve. Also if the converter seal inside is worn out will it leaks the transmission oil? Thanks

Hi, I really enjoyed the Simplicity of how you explain things. My name is, Michelle, and I have a 2003 Cadillac DeVille DHS, and it just shuts off randomly. I took the car to my local O'Reilly's for them to put their scanner on there and the code PO741 came up. In fact, it was the only code that came up. Now, I was told, by several transmission shops, that to replace my torque converter, would be a waste of time, and if the damage had made it to my torque, then I need to buy a whole transmission. Please help😂

Hello, I just had my 2003 BMW 530i with 204K diagnosed from getting the dreaded P0741 code. The shop told me to not bother putting any money into the car because it wasn't worth it. I never had the transmission fluid replaced because I didn't know. It's running good with the occasional slip, more like a hiccup and the RPM may hang at 3,000 at 80 mph; but, not all the time, rarely. I just put new tires, struts, tie rods, oil cover gasket and water pump. I would like to, at least, run the car for as long as I can to get my money's worth on the recent repairs. I have the kit to change the transmission fluid and bought the LUCAS additive, just in case it's not recommended to change the fluid. I was wondering if I should replace the transmission pressure regulator, install a new torque converter or just do the regulator and LUCAS additive or just add LUCAS additive alone. I hope that makes sense. Thanks for the awesome videos.

Only 2 issues are a small oil leak front of engine - will determine from where . And What I want to ask is , I also have a whine that goes up and down with the rpms "around" the transmission area.Could this indicate anything? possibly still the regulator valve? help.....!!!!

Any ideas on P0744 on 2001 Nissan Maxima with Jatco RE4F04A transmission (at least it is not CVT) Fluid was very dark so I changed it twice (doing a 3 drain-fill to do a flush). Miles: 205K it was shifting at 4K rpm on all gears and delayed engagement. Drain-Fill 1 ; fluid very dark/black brown, didn't smell bad or have metal flakes 1 gal out , IN 3 qts (Valvoline MaxLife synthatic ATF) + 24 oz Lucus in it was alot better and the more it was driven the better it got. but P0744 kept coming back Drain-Fill 2 : 3-4k miles later fluid black again but with a reddish tint 1 gal out, IN 3 qts (Valvoline MaxLife synthatic ATF) + 24 oz Lucus in its was better for the 1-2 shift but still P0744 comes up mostly now for > 50mph. instead of < 50mph. I highly suspect I have sticking Solenoid and/or Valve. My next steps are using SeaFoam Trans Tune in the Transmission trying to clean any varnish, and clean out stuff on valve body. after adding the Trans Tune will drive car 30-1000 miles before doing the 3rd and final ATF drain-fill.. hopefully this will do it. if it doesn't then I am going to have to open up the transmission This car doesn't get driven that much , its my son's first car now and use to be mine. transmission issues did not show up untill 3-4 months after he got the car. Doh I wish it was a stick shift wouldn't have this issue.

Thank you for all the videos you do. I have an unrelated question that I hope you can answer in a future video. My 2003 330i has a p0441 code. A symptom I've been having for a while is I can never fill up my gas tank without it clicking off prematurely, and It seems to be getting worse as time goes by. I usually leave the gas station in frustration as I can never get it past 3/4 full. Research has led me to believe that I have a problem with my carbon canister, which is why the gas nozzle clicks off early. On my last fill up, however, I couldn't get the tank past 3/4 full no matter how hard I tried. It would keep clicking off when I got to that point as if i were trying to top off the tank. That has led me to believe I have a problem with my fuel level sender. My question is do I possibly have a problem with both the canister because the gas clicks off randomly while I fill it up, and the fuel level sender because it won't let me get past 3/4 full? Thanks. I hope I didn't write that confusingly.

@50sKid 7 жыл бұрын
Ah I thought I had replied to you when you first asked the question. Basically your vent valve is stuck shut, which causes the fuel pump to shut off when you're filling. Ratchets and wrenches did a great video on this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmrag3eVedynbsk -- I do believe I have a bad vent valve lying around. I will do my own video on it.

What I explain in this video is particular to this exact transmission and doesn't necessarily apply to others. In your case the code could be caused by a solenoid impairing the torque converter circuit or maybe a worn valve component in the valve body.

This particular cause of the P0741 code is specific to this transmission only. Namely, the seal blowing out inside the TC because of the pressure regulator. On your transmission, the cause of that code could be entirely different. It could have nothing to do with the oil circuit inside of the TC and it could be a problem with that circuit in the transmission itself. It could indeed be the solenoid that is involved in that circuit. I would do more research on your particular vehicle's common problems. You may find a common solution that is much cheaper than what someone with a BMW would have to do!

I Messaged You On Instagram & You Never Got Back To Me. Anyhow I Have Heard There Is A TCC Solenoid To Replace On Valve Body That Can Or It Goes BAD Causing P0741!! Torque Converter Lock Up Fails Because TCC Solenoid Is Bad. Is This True? Bad Seal Would Be Leaking Fluid And That's Not My Case. My Transmission Works. I have P0741 Code!! So Should I Get A New TCC Solenoid And Replace or Replace Torque Converter?? Or replace Full Transmission?? Thanks Hopefully You Get Back To Me On Here!!

if your wheels lock up perhaps there is a problem with the DSC system. The wheel speed sensors might be going bad.

Technically speaking, on a 2004 Toyota Corolla 1.8 VVT-i with the U341E 4-speed automatic transmission, it could be possible to modify the activation threshold of the torque converter lock-up clutch from, let's say, 48 mph to 160 mph? Doing so, that clutch would never engage and the drive would be more confortable and linear, despite the fuel consumption being slightly higher.

So your saying I could drive the car with the po741 code and get less gas mileage but really recommend changing the pressure regulator from the transmission

i had the po741 code come on my 02 330i at about 50k miles. i took it to a shop and they wanted $5k to put in a new trans. seeing that it still drove like normal i decided if i am going to spend 5k might as well wait for it to be fully dead. the car now has 165k miles on it and its still running on that trans. The only thing is that this code is a emissions code and in my area causes it not to pass. i just spend $150 every couple of years to get around that with a waiver . these older BMW are money pits if one does not wrench on them themselves.

I get around this by resetting codes and staying away from freeways. Within two weeks all monitors are complete except evap, which is fine in California. Have passed smog test four times doing it this way.

thanks, I tried all that , got new maf , new 02 sensors, replaced fuel ,air filter , new boot , new spark plugs , and still that code , am like so over it, only thing left is to try used gem maf from e bay , cause I was in a hurry and need a car to run son got new maf from auto zone , duralast brand , I know I know but I took a chance , because when I was cleaning my old maf I drop it and wire inside broke , so car does run ,but it doesn't have power on low end , so must be auto zone maf

My car has the same code, I been driving it for a while now. The torque converter would only lockup at 75mph or higher, some time it doesn't lockup at all. Any speed lower than 75 mph, the tc would unlock. My question is what's the normal tc locked up speed?
@50sKid
@50sKid 7 жыл бұрын
The tc can lockup in 3rd, 4th, or 5th gear. There's no one set speed it just engages when the speed is steady.

Im sorry, love your videos, but the fluid that acts as a coupling in the torque converter is not air but ATF.

You misunderstood me, I did not mean that there was air inside the torque converter. I did say fluid. I was using an analogy that the fluid is the "air" in my earlier example of the two desk fans.
