Hello all, newbie here.
I have tried searching this question but didn't see anything specific to the 2011 year. Last Friday, out T&C threw a P0740 code. I reset it but it came back on within 5 miles.

I know its for the TQ Clutch control solenoid, my question is, has anyone had this replaced and roughly how much to replace it and the converter at the same time? I have seen posts saying close to 3K

P0740 is a generic OBDII code that is universal for all makes, years & models so in your research - don't limit yourself to 2011 T & C. Several things can set the code and you should try the easiest & cheapest first (IMO).

Common Problems That Trigger the P0740 Code

• Defective Torque Converter Lockup Solenoid
• Defective Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor
• Defective Torque Converter Clutch
• Defective Valve Body
• Dirty transmission fluid that restricts the hydraulic passages

Stole this from another site, to help you get started. When was the last tranny flush? Maybe it needs it anyway?

Trying to ease your mind before you jump out and spend a bunch of money.
