looking for where or how to find the tranny code on an auto 010 Mk1 or Mk2 trans

[SR Heer]

I am looking to mate an ABA up to a TL or TJ - 010 auto in an 84 Jetta -  but I have not been able to decipher or tell how to distinguish what trans I might be looking at - what is with these auto transmissions - I cannot find where to look for the tranny or ident code such as TL or TJ - all I know is it is not where the 020 specific tranny codes are located. Does anyone know where to or how to look this info up? Does one have to compare the tranny PN with a parts list to see what it is or is there actually a TL or TJ code stamped on it somewhere? Thanks!

It's stamped on there. I think it's on the top by the bell housing or speedo cable.

Im pretty sure its on the bottom of the bellhousing like an 020.  Also i am 99% sure an 010 wont work on an aba because the back of the block is shaped differently so the starter wont fit.  I remember someone fitting one on to a 1.8t with some type of aftermarket starter,  it was over on vwvortex.  Id love to see u do this the mk1 autos are fun for some reason

I tried putting a 010 on an AAZ and it wouldn't fit with the diesel starter. I think the gas one fit. It's worth checking though.
