And the other being a Torque Converter CKT Performance OR Stuck Off. Anyone have any experience with dealing with these ? What should I be looking to replace/ cost etc.

Default Precisely... Replace the torque converter or just drive as is. I have the

same code and after much research and talking to repair techs (including Audi) that will say you need a whole new transmission, I decided to leave it be for a while. It should only be affecting O/D and possibly noticeable at highway speeds. If you have the cash 2200. For the part 950 and 12 hrs of labor then do it now. I do not notice anything with my car except an annoying check light and cant chip. Im also sure others will chime in. Keep in mind long term it could harm rest of transmission.

Good Luck
