P2757 on Volkswagen
Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Performance/Stuck Off
P2757 on Volkswagen vehicles indicates torque converter clutch pressure control solenoid control circuit performance/stuck off. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Volkswagen model — most commonly on Tiguan. This code means the torque converter clutch (TCC) pressure control solenoid is not performing correctly or is stuck in the off position, preventing proper lockup of the torque converter. The TCC normally locks the engine and transmission together at cruising speed to reduce slippage and heat. When it won't apply, you may notice slipping, reduced fuel economy, and elevated transmission fluid temperature. Sustained operation can overheat and degrade the transmission fluid, leading to internal damage.
Common Causes of P2757
- •Faulty TCC pressure control solenoid
- •Low or contaminated transmission fluid
- •Wiring or connector problems to the solenoid
- •Internal valve body fault / stuck valve
- •Worn torque converter clutch
- •Internal hydraulic pressure loss
- •Faulty transmission control module
P2757 on Volkswagen by Model
Volkswagen Tiguan(1 issue)
- Aisin AWF8F35 8-Speed Automatic Hesitation and Torque Converter Shudder (MQB AD1)2018-2021
The second-generation Tiguan replaced the DSG with an Aisin AWF8F35 8-speed torque-converter automatic. Owners report a pronounced hesitation of a second or more when pulling away from a stop or when rolling into the throttle at low speed, followed by an abrupt lurch, plus a shudder or vibration felt in the 1,200-1,800 RPM lock-up range that feels like driving over rumble strips. The behavior comes from aggressive lock-up and fuel-economy-biased shift calibration combined with torque converter clutch shudder as the fluid degrades. The issue drew a US class action covering 2018-2020 Tiguans and VW addressed part of it through ECM/TCM software updates and a torque converter shudder service action.

What does P2757 mean on Volkswagen?▼
P2757 stands for "Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Performance/Stuck Off." This code means the torque converter clutch (TCC) pressure control solenoid is not performing correctly or is stuck in the off position, preventing proper lockup of the torque converter. The TCC normally locks the engine and transmission together at cruising speed to reduce slippage and heat. When it won't apply, you may notice slipping, reduced fuel economy, and elevated transmission fluid temperature. Sustained operation can overheat and degrade the transmission fluid, leading to internal damage. On Volkswagen specifically, this code is documented across 1 model.
