P0706 Fault Code FIX! Audi A4 B7 CVT Transmission Control Module Removal & Repair

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Do you have a P0706 fault code? This may be the fix!
eManual Repair Manuals for Any Vehicle - shrsl.com/43l4o
In today's episode we are fixing the TCU (transmission control module) that is causing the P0706 fault code. Also causing the CVT transmission to randomly 'forget' what gear it's in and goes into neutral while driving. This is a VERY common issue with these Audi A4s and A6's.
We remove the transmission control module and send it to Module Masters in Idaho to be rebuilt. This costs about $200 + shipping and did end up fixing the issue we were having.
I have listed all parts, tools and resources below that were used in this video.

    Hi! Having PRNDS all steady lit up in my Audi A4... cheap scanner rekons it's a fault in the speed sensor (integrated to the TCM) still goes through all gears but no cruise control... anyway, I just bought a refurb TCM from china and a cloning tool... $1500 AUD including freight, expensive but nothing compared to what companies charge here just to refurb yours (quoted FROM $2.755 AUD that's crazy!!!) Will arrive home in 9 days or so. My plan is to follow your video step by step, got the tools already. Will remove old TCM and have it ready to clone it's data to the "new" one and will put everything back (reusing gasket and probably using a digital torque wrench to avoid striping those bolts😅) Hope to get it done properly.... Wish me luck 🤞 I am not a mechanic, work as a labourer in construction meaning no knowledge but happy to try and learn through the process (oh and I'm broke too hahahaha) Thanks for sharing mate!

He fixed my module in one day. I use the same pump from harbor freight, but stuffed a paper towel around the hose to fill the gap when pumping the fluid in the transmission. It worked perfectly to stop the fluid from dripping out. There was no mess. Thanks a lot!

    It's not a 7 speed as such , it's a CVT , how many "gear" settings it has is matter of software, you can theoretically programme the " tiptronic" mode to use as many different gear settings as you fancy.

    Yeah its totally fine to lower it, its still connected to the engine, but you need to have a jack underneath to support the transmission when you remove the brace and mount. That way it doesn't sag down to much or ruin the motor mounts. Thanks for watching and commenting🤙🏼

For the phone scanner, I am using Torque Pro, which is only about $6 for the app then need the bluetooth scanner piece. Pretty helpful. If I remember correctly, your Audi has an external TCU which is known to fail or cause issues as well.

    11:46 the module is a easy fix if you know how to solder aluminum wires, the electronics of this unit is the most cheap and disposable one of the many electronics units of the whole vehicle, inside you can find a Hybrid electronic circuit covered with a soft high temperature resistant resin, this hybrid circuit once that fails, it can not be fixed. The main problem: internally there are an array of mechanical bonded aluminum wires making the connection between all the hall-sensor embedded in the external plastic columns and the internal hybrid circuit covered with soft resin. Those internal aluminum wires are exposed to the changing temperatures and vibrations and this can cause in the future a permanent damage to the hall-sensor and to the hybrid electronic circuit causing overheat to the internal circuits storing a permanent error. If you open the unit carefully with a drimmel and the resin looks oily, it is game over, the excess of heat cooks the resin and you will find some wire unbound, but if the resin still transparently clear and some wires are just unbound, the only fix is to solder those wires back, if you have the skill to do it. Congratulations you will save yourself a lot of money and get a lot of money 🤣, if not, contact me and I can give you a good price for this repairs 👌, oh and about the instrument cluster... that's also easy to fix😁, oh and the triptonic same problems😉

    i have an 2001 volks wagon Passat GLX 2.8 v6 30V that was purchased for a few hundred bucks.The guy told me when i purchased it that the fluid ran low in it ,he took car to a shop and mechanic told him that his transmission level was two quarts low. long story short the codes that i pulled up on this vehicle are P0741 Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off,and code P0730 Incorrect gear ratio. From your Experience what should i have done to resolve this issue the car runs very great and i hate to see this minor problem keep me from driving it.Thanks in advance for any advice,also keep up the great work.

    I hope you used a new metal gasket as they are a one time use item and the cover bolts are stretch bolts so you need to replace all 12 of them. The torque specs for the TCM x3 screws are 10nm and the cover bolts x12 are 15nm.

    It would be VERY beneficial to have a VCDS system, which isn't too expensive. But most importantly, you will need to match your transmission code to an exact used one. These cars have different versions of the same transmission that are associated with a code. Usually located in the trunk near the spare tire on a tag.

    Thank you for making this and all your videos with great dedication, and I wanted to ask you something else. I have an Audi B7 2.0T, and VCDS shows me the G196 issue in the transmission. I don't have any problems while driving, but the letters PRNDS sometimes stay in red and sometimes normal. My question is, does it relate to the TCU (Transmission Control Unit)? When I put it in D or R, it vibrates a little, but when I accelerate, the vibration stops. Is it due to the transmission? And the last question, at how many RPM should it be when it's in D or R? Thank you for your time, and thank you very much for your videos! Greetings from Chile.

    When is the last time the trans fluid was changed? Is the fluid at the proper level? That's the first 2 things I would check. For the code, The ECU is telling you that there is a problem with the Transmission Output Speed Sensor 2 (G196). It's not seeing it electrically...hence the "No Signal" code. According to the Bentley Manual the G196 sensor is inside the TCM; so, if it's bad you will need to replace the TCM or find someone that can repair it for you. The sensor could be bad or you could have a wiring problem. I wouldn't order any parts until you have verified that there isn't a wiring issue.

For the pattern I just went as the bolts were on a clock, i.e. 12,6, 3, 9, 1, 7 and so. No leaks and just a happy accident with one of the 18 mm bolts that I snapped because my torque wrench basically did not work. I'm buying new bolts and replacing them later. Another question regarding adaptation: after filling up and checking level, I did the D+10meters+stop for 10 seconds, R+10 meters, stop for 10 seconds, seven times in a row; I still feel the gearbox is trying to do something really clunky sometimes. Is there any other adaptation process to follow? I have ODBEleven Pro but there is no adaptation application for the A4 B7 (which makes my mad as they advertise it does)

    Instead of sending out to replace the TCM could I just get a new one ? I don’t know anyone local that rebuilds the transmission control module, so just wondering if I had to rebuild it or if I could just get a new tcm ?

    Yes, I think that is possible. There is no local TCU rebuild shops here either, I had to send it out to Idaho to a company called ModuleMasters. They rebuilt it and sent it back. You can contact them and see if they sell rebuilt TCUs. The whole process only took about 5 days to get the module back when getting rebuilt as well.

    That's a lot of issues. Both engine codes and transmission codes will require diagnosing and multiple fixes. Sometimes I take my car to the dealership or a good shop and pay them only for a diagnostic fee, usually around $200. But they find everything wrong and suggest the correct fixes. Sometimes it's worth it when having as many complications as you have. Once you get the diagnostic report, you could repair the items yourself if you have the tools and know how.

I tried taking it to a couple shops and one didn’t know what the issue was while the other refused to do it with warranty concerns.
