==== Special Notes ====
* Numerous Audi TPIs/TSBs exist for 0B5 transmission problems.  Although a majority are flash update related some are hardware related ("printed circuits" ''internal wiring harness'') instead.  As of October, 2015 the following list may be helpful but the [[Official Factory Repair Information]] should be used to confirm if they apply to the vehicle in question:

* Coolant, water ingress and corrosion problems at the 0B5 Mechatronic connector aren't uncommon. When dealing with a TCM that won't communicate at all -or- is packed full of random DTCs such as P1893, P1894, P1892, P1890, U0100, U0146, P2850, U0100, U0212 and U0401 please see this thread:

* Some 0B5 Mechatronic replacements may require the dealer network to match it up even though there is no "Locked" or "Component Protection" type fault codes.

* When P17CA is stored in a new Mechatronic unit that does NOT have Component Protection DTCs the Basic Settings procedure may resolve it per feedback in this thread:
