Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off

P0741 on Genesis by model: symptoms, diagnosis and fix
Certain 2023 G70 2.0T models built between April 14, 2022 and June 14, 2022 can suffer internal rivet damage and cracks inside the torque converter. Symptoms are a scratching/grinding noise and, in rare cases, an engine stall at idle or creep speeds. Genesis addressed this with Service Campaign T27G (TSB 23-01-003G), which replaces the torque converter. Importantly, on these cars a stall should be checked against this campaign before any ECM is condemned.
Common Symptoms
- Scratching or grinding noise from the transmission area
- Engine stall at idle or creep speeds (rare)
How to Fix
Confirm the VIN and production date against Service Campaign T27G (TSB 23-01-003G). The remedy is replacement of the torque converter at no charge for affected vehicles. If you have a low-speed stall or scratching noise on a 2023 2.0T, have the dealer investigate this campaign first — do not let the ECM be replaced before the torque converter is ruled out.

Frequently asked questions
What does P0741 mean on a Genesis?
P0741 stands for "Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off." This code means the torque converter clutch (TCC) is not working as expected and is effectively stuck off, so the converter clutch isn't locking up the way the computer commands it to. The TCC mechanically links the engine to the transmission at cruising speeds to reduce slippage and improve fuel economy, and the computer compares engine RPM to transmission/output speed to verify lockup. When the expected RPM drop from lockup doesn't happen, it sets this performance code. You may notice higher-than-normal RPM at highway speed, reduced fuel economy, and sometimes elevated transmission temperatures. On Genesis it is documented across 1 model: G70.
What are the most common causes of P0741?
The most common causes of P0741 are: Low, dirty, or degraded transmission fluid, Faulty torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoid, Stuck or worn valve body / TCC control valve, Failed torque converter (internal clutch worn or slipping), Internal transmission leaks reducing apply pressure, Damaged wiring or connector to the TCC solenoid, Faulty transmission control module (TCM/PCM). The specific cause varies by vehicle.
How much does it cost to fix P0741 on a Genesis?
Repair costs vary widely with the root cause and Genesis model; each issue on this page carries its own estimate where one is published.
