Got the dreaded P0741 Code today
Today I was driving along and my CEL came on. Later that night on my way to work I was driving about 60mph and the car started trying to downshift and the transmission started slipping. After waiting a few minutes I limped the car to work and it only acted up one more time. I know this problem has been discussed in the past but has anyone found a solution other than replacing the transmission? I hooked the car up to a Snap-on Solus scanner and it gave me tests to run on the solenoid but I don't have the time tonight. I would rather try to replace the $300 solenoid than the transmission but if I am chasing my tail by doing it I would rather just rebuild/replace the trans. Thanks for any help in advance.

well if it slip then usually you will need a new AT, our TL AT isn't bullet proof like IS350 or G35.

The tranny that went out is in my 2005. I have been very careful with the 2008. I bout the 2005 fairly cheap due to hail damage. I just got done painting it and had only driven it for a couple of weeks before this. I have checked all of the solenoids. Everyone ohmed out fine so I'm just facing the facts that the trans is in need of a rebuild. Haven't decided whether I'm going to rebuild myself or take it somewhere.
