Before viewing video look at this image and read below...



So use MVB 01 03 07 in module 2...

Note 1 (red lines) Torq.Con.slip is the difference between engine revs and transmission revs...

Note 2 (blue line) Torq.Con.Clutch status, without going in depth from what I've been reading explained below ...

TC Open = when Torq.Con is free wheel allowed greater variation in slip (also when tran.cold)...

TC Reg = when Torq.Con being regulated to only slip between a range... highest figure I noted was 160 /min in Torque converter slip data window 4 of MVB 07

TC Locked = when Torq.Con is locked fully, no slippage, this occur when engine speed & transmission speed match...

Again all of this is kept as simple so I can make sense to myself & you ...

Besides the revs/sounds in video as to what occurring in driving style (green/yellow lines), brake light switch window will show BRAKE when I brake..

Right heres the video...

Read & absorb above... it is same tranny in that thread... good info...

Now if you have torque converter issue then slippage will be great in TC reg mode...


We can log Measuring block #7, which will show TCC status in field #3 (open, control, or closed) as well as TCC slip in field #4 (RPM difference). For the 5-speed, VW TSB specified to replace the TC if the slip was over 120 RPM in control or over 10 RPM when closed.

I know guy is talking about a 5 speed box but the principle is the same... the thread is on a 6HP-19 Link:- VWVortex.com - Phaeton ATF Concern (Please Help!)

I found this a good read as well... Link:- HowStuffWorks "How Torque Converters Work"
