Topping Up Transmission Oil

TOPPING UP ATF, 096 TRANSMISSION


CAUTION!
Too much ATF will cause transmission malfunctions and must therefore be extracted. This can be done with VAG 1358 A/1 and VAG 1358A probe, or EZ1 fluid evacuator.
Only ATF with the designation Dexron may be used. Do not use any lubricant additives.

- Pour in ATF through a funnel. Approx 3 liters (3.2 US qt.) at first for an initial filling.

- Then start engine and shift through all the selector positions with the vehicle stationary

- Check ATF level

- Use a non-fluffing cloth for wiping off the dipstick

- The ATF level changes with the temperature of the fluid. The Min. and Max. markings on the dipstick refer to the correct levels for an ATF temperature of 60° C (140° F)
