Default TCM trouble?? Hard shifting

Hey guys,I ve got 2000 A4. My tranny went into limp mode a few days ago, Dealer towed it(I'm still under Warranty) and said that water got into TCM from leak somewhere. Anyway they blamed my new non Audi windshield and a suppossed crack in the wheel well from a fender bender I had over a year ago. Either way they weren't gonna cover it under warranty.Told me needed $1600 dollar part so I told them after big argument stop what you are doing with car and I'll come get it.Still cost me $200

I have vag and read the codes as below:

Address 01 -------------------------------------------------------
Controller: 3B0 907 551 G
Component: 2.8L V6/5V G01 0003
Coding: 07251
Shop #: WSC 08215
5 Faults Found:
18032 - MIL Request Signal Active (Check TCM for errors too!)
P1624 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
18034 - Powertrain Data Bus: Missing Message from TCU
P1626 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
18056 - Powertrain Data Bus: Failure
P1648 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
16815 - Warm Up Catalyst: Bank 2: Efficiency Below Threshold
P0431 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
16805 - Warm Up Catalyst: Bank 1: Efficiency Below Threshold
P0421 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
Readiness: 0000 1000

Address 02 -------------------------------------------------------
Controller: 8D0 927 156 AT
Component: AG5 01V 2.8l5V USA 3132
Coding: 00002
Shop #: WSC 00000
5 Faults Found:
18223 - Pressure Control Valve 1 (N215): Short to Plus
P1815 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
18155 - Transmission Solenoid Power Relay: Open or Short to Ground
P1747 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
18233 - Pressure Control Valve 3 (N217): Short to Plus
P1825 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
18228 - Pressure Control Valve 2 (N216): Short to Plus
P1820 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
18238 - Pressure Control Valve 4 (N218): Short to Plus
P1830 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent

Anyway dried things out and reset codes and everything is fine ,No fault codes but the tranny is shifting very hard and holding gears for longer. Even slowing down the gears are shifting back very hard.

Can anybody help me out??????. I've been reading for a couple of days on here and this is the first time I haven't been able to find the answer to my problem on this excellent forum!! The only thing I've found is about recoding the TCM, which is currently at 0002?? Or do I need a new one???

I'd really appreciate your help, thanks in advance and sorry for the long post

Default New TCM should only be ~$635 at dealer, half that at salvage yard. Make sure of P/N. Easy in/out DIY
