IT'S ALL HERE! Remember, We Have ALL Of Your Audi Fluids:

• Audi Coolant (a.k.a. Audi Antifreeze)
• Audi Manual Transmission Fluid
• Audi Power Steering Tluid (a.k.a. Audi Hydraulic Fluid)
• Audi Brake Fluid

When changing your Audi automatic transmission fluid, you may want to consider our Audi fluid change kits. Prices start as low as $63.95! These kits include all the Audi brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid (a.k.a. gear/differential lube), automatic transmission fluid (ATF), and power steering fluid (a.k.a. hydraulic fluid) needed for your specific Audi model. We can drop ship our Audi fluid change kits directly to your Audi mechanic; which makes changing Audi fluids even easier.

Some Audi authorities suggest that you don't need to change your Audi's automatic transmission fluid. We simply feel this is illogical. An Audi automatic transmission has hundreds of moving components inside of it, such as needle bearings, pressure pumps, clutch packs, servo pistons and seals. These internal components mesh with one another, begin to wear, and create finite metallic particles which contaminate the Audi automatic transmission fluid. Over time, the Audi automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and paper filament transmission filter become contaminated with these particles. New transmission fluid is nearly clear in color. If you've ever seen the dark color of old transmission fluid (approximately 30,000 miles), you'll agree that it seems very logical that changing the Audi automatic transmission fluid and filter are needed.

This picture illustrates the cleaning of an Audi tiptronic automatic transmission fluid drain pan with approximately 80,000 miles on it. Note the dirty metallic sediment that is being removed from the drain pan. This customer was complaining of shifting problems when the transmission was cold. After changing the Audi automatic transmission fluid with our fluid and filter kit the customer reported that his Audi transmission shifting problems were gone. If you have an Audi tiptronic transmission shifting problem, we recommend changing your automatic transmission fluid and filter as a first step in trying to solve the problem.

Automatic transmission fluid levels should be checked at regular intervals. The intervals depend on your Audi's operating conditions. The Audi automatic transmission fluid and filter should be serviced every 30,000 miles when driving in heavy city, hot weather, trailer pulling, and other severe driving conditions. The 60,000 miles change interval applies to those who mainly put on highway miles. Audi automatic transmission fluid and filter service is great preventive maintenance and is much more logical and inexpensive than replacing a $8,000 Audi transmission.

This is a basic overview of what is involved when flushing Audi automatic transmission fluid. It is not intended to replace the factory Bentley manual. For detailed instructions, please refer to the factory Bentley manual or BLAUfergnugen's Audi automatic transmission fluid change instructions that are now included in our ATF filter kits!

Overview On How To Change Audi Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) On Audi A4, Audi A6, And Audi A8 Models:

• Flushing your Audi automatic transmission fluid should always be done in conjunction with the automatic filter replacement.
• Refer to the factory Bentley manual for Audi automatic transmission fluid system instructions.
• We recommend having a A.S.E. certified Audi mechanic change your Audi automatic transmission fluid.
• Always wear gloves and safety goggles when handling Audi fluids.

1. Make sure the vehicle is perfectly level.
2. When the transmission fluid is still warm, but the vehicle has cooled down, remove the Audi transmission drain plug and drain the fluid into an appropriate container (Image 1).
3. Remove the automatic transmission fluid oil pan (Image 2).
4. Clean the sediment out of the bottom of the transmission fluid oil pan. And clean the magnets which have attracted metallic particles (Images 3, 4).
5. Remove the Audi automatic transmission fluid filter (Image 5).
6. Install the new Audi transmission filter rubber pan gasket, and filter onto the transmission valve body. Torque the screws to factory specifications (Image 6).
7. Align the new Audi automatic transmission fluid oil pan gasket with the oil pan and install the oil pan. Torque the screws to factory specifications.
8. Remove the Audi automatic transmission fluid oil pan fill plug (Image 7).
9. Using the high output pump (replaces Audi special tool VAG 1924) supplied with our Audi transmission filter kit, fill the oil pan with the Audi automatic transmission fluid until in runs out.
10. Reinstall the Audi automatic transmission fluid oil fill plug hand tight.
11. Start the car. With your foot pressed down on the brake pedal, shift the transmission selector in each gear for about 10 seconds. Note: Don't drive the car.
12. Remove the oil fill plug while the car is at an idle and add more Audi automatic transmission fluid until it runs out. The final steps and procedures for topping off the Audi automatic transmission fluid level will vary depending on Audi model and year. It is critical to obtain the proper Audi automatic transmission fluid level to prevent Audi transmission shifting problems especially with tiptronic transmissions. You should refer to the factory Bentley manual or BLAUfergnugen's Audi automatic transmission fluid change instructions that are now included in our ATF filter kits!
