Ok since your car has the dsg transmission it doesn’t have torque converter bolts cause is like a manual tranny .it should come out as soon as you take the bolts off. Obviously after removing the axles etc. I’ll put some pictures in how to remove it.
If your car has less then 100k miles I believe the transmission still under warranty
