V6 ICM and triptronic advantage

Does V6 has ignition control module? I tried to locate it in the car and i can't find it. I also tried to find on internet and is not there for V6 only for 1.8 eng. My car hasitate again probably because winter is coming. i have this car for 3 years and it runs perfect in the summer but when the winter comes the problems seems to come with it. I hope is not transmission.
One more question... what is the advantage of this triptronic transmission I never used it?
I already thank you for your advise. You guys help me alot before.

Triptronic is to become a manual transmission when needed.
