P0741 problem what if your toyota is a rebulid tiltle will they still fix the p0741 problem? TSB TC008-04 and warranty for ECU malfunction

here is some info. I hope it helps.

This is a code relative to shift solenoid malfunctions in your computer. This is a known problem on your model and Toyota released an updated PCM to correct the problem.
While you can replace the PCM yourself if you are out of warranty, your dealer will need to code your VIN to it in order to get rid of the check engine light.
The warranty coverage is 8 years or 80,000 miles from new.

The details of the bulletin are below:

TRANSMISSION & CLUTCH
TC015-07 Title:
HARSH SHIFT AND M.I.L. "ON"
DTC P2716 Models:
'05 - '07 Corolla & Matrix (1ZZ-FE) September 20, 2007
TSB UPDATE NOTICE:The information contained in this TSB supercedes TSB No. TC014-06.
TSB No. TCO14-06 is now obsolete and should be discarded. Introduction
Some 2005 - 2007 model year Corolla and Matrix vehicles equipped with an automatic transaxle may exhibit a harsh shift condition and a M.l.L. ON" with DTC P2716 stored. Improvements have been made to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (SAE term:
Powertrain Control Module/PCM) to reduce the possibility of this condition occurring

Yeah Toyota is aware of this situation.Production changes have occurred to correct this condition.
You did the right thing to take it to the the dealership because when they pulled the code p0741 they had to apply the Toyota Technical Service bulletin TC008-04" to your vehicle.
They had to perform several tests and since you said they replaced the ECU for free it was because your vehicle was lower then 5 years old and less then 60,000 miles. This TBS is covered by the powertrain Warranty. They had to replaced the ECU with an updated unit, and that particular warranty is in effect for 96 months or 80,000 miles. Your car should be back on the road running like a champion and you should NOT have the same code again.

it means that either your solenoid is getting stuck or not performing well and getting stuck .check also for lose conections on the solenoid if not replace tha sensor

Without diagnosing this problem i can only take a good guess, the po741 on this ford is related to the tcc, this is the torque converter clutch, the converter clutch seliniod may be bad, you will need to test it and omh it and check for shorts or open circuit in the seliniod.

Code # p2238 is for the air fuel sensor,you may have a bad sensor the one in the exhaust manifold.

This is a common problem with V6 Passats. VW put out a TSB on this a few years ago.
The code is telling you that your catalytic converter (driver's side, I think) is bad. It's more than likely not bad.

VW put out a TSB on this a few years ago. TSB 05-13. The cause of the error code is basically an over sensitive ECU (computer of car/engine) and the fix is to have your ECU flashed with the latest and greatest software. Depending on your mileage they might do it under warranty - you'll have to check.

It's still possible that it might be a bad catalytic converter - and the dealership might try to tell you that either way. Call VW (1-800-822-8987) and ask them about the TSB (I couldn't find it online).

Tell the dealership you want the ECU flashed - it's much much cheaper than a cat. No sense replacing it if it's not bad
There is a federal warranty on catalytic converters - 8 yrs or 80k miles...

Hope this helps!

BOTTOM LINE: TAKE IT TOYOTA BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRES @ 80,000 MILES OR 8 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP.

I had mine taken care of today free of charge, and hassle free, thanks to the service crew at Condit's Toyota.

This is a known condition. And, is under warranty.

Take your vehicle to a Toyota dealership. Ask them to replace your ECU per TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) TC015-07. The new ECU has redesigned logic that rectifys your condition.
