As an independent Vw service garage, we know what fails on Vw's and why. Changing your fluids is the single most important preventive maintenance and yet for many Vw owners seems to be the most neglected area! Flushing your fluids at the proper intervals can get your Vw to 150,000 miles and beyond! Vw automatic transmission fluid should be changed every 30,000 miles (heavy city) - 60,000 (highway) (see technical info below). Changing your Vw automatic transmission fluid helps extend the life of your transmission by properly lubricating the main shaft bearings and synchros. This is most easily done in conjunction with the Vw transmission filter maintenance. |

| Vw Automatic Transmission Fluid Information: |
Why do we say that changing the Vw automatic transmission fluid (ATF) extends the life of your transmission? We've witnessed in our own service facility what regular transmission fluid maintenance can do. The biggest difference we've seen is the elimination of shift problems in Vw tiptronic transmissions due to old transmission fluid and filter. Remember, you should always change the Vw automatic transmission filter every time you do a fluid change. Why contaminate clean fluid with the sediment that is stored in an old automatic transmission filter ( see illustration below). |
• Why changing your Vw automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is important.
• Changing Vw automatic transmission fluid used to be difficult.

Flushing And Changing Your Vw Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) IS Important!
Some Vw authorities suggest that you don't need to change your Vw's automatic transmission fluid. We simply feel this is illogical. A Vw 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 Vw automatic transmission fluid. Over time, the Vw 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 Vw 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 transmission shifting problems were gone. If you have an Vw 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 Vw's operating conditions. The Vw 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. Vw automatic transmission fluid and filter service is great preventive maintenance and is much more logical and inexpensive than replacing a $8,000 Vw transmission. |
Changing Vw Automatic Transmission Fluid Used To Be Difficult.
Most 1995-on Vw models don't have a transmission fluid dipstick for checking the Vw transmission fluid level. To fill and check the level of the Vw automatic transmission fluid you have to remove a plug on the side or bottom (location depends on model) of the transmission drain pan. The factory manual refers the expensive VAG 1924 special tool for pumping the Vw automatic transmission fluid into the oil pan. BLAUfergnugen has now make changing your automatic transmission fluid easier and less expensive by substituting this Vw special tool VAG 1924 with a more cost effective hand pump that is included in our Vw transmission filter kits for FREE! Remember, you should always change the Vw transmission filter during this fluid change. Why contaminate clean fluid with the sediment that's stored in the old automatic transmission filter.
We sell a complete automatic transmission fluid service kit that includes (depending on application):
- Vw automatic transmission filter
- Filter to valve body gasket
- Oil pan gasket
- Oil pan drain plug gasket
- Additional oil drain pan mounting hardware
- Appropriate liters of automatic transmission fluid
- High output pump dispenser (used in place of Vw tool VAG 1924)
- Detailed
 installation instructions.
Our automatic transmission fluid service kits are available for select Vw modes at a great price! Save up to 80% off dealer prices on Vw automatic transmission filters!

This is a basic overview of what is involved when flushing Vw 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 Vw automatic transmission fluid change instructions that are now included in our ATF filter kits!
How To Change Vw Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) Overview For Vw Passat, Jetta, Golf, and Beetle Models:
- Flushing your Vw automatic transmission fluid should always be done in conjunction with the automatic filter replacement.
- Refer to the factory Bentley manual for Vw automatic transmission fluid system instructions.
- We recommend having a A.S.E. certified Vw mechanic change your Vw automatic transmission fluid.
- Always wear gloves and safety goggles when handling Vw fluids.
-
Make sure the vehicle is perfectly level.
-
When the transmission fluid is still warm, but the vehicle has cooled down, remove the Vw transmission drain plug and drain the fluid into an appropriate container (Image 1).
-
Remove the automatic transmission fluid oil pan (Image 2).
-
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).
-
Remove the Vw automatic transmission fluid filter (Image 5).
-
Install the new Vw transmission filter rubber pan gasket, and filter onto the transmission valve body. Torque the screws to factory specifications (Image 6).
-
Align the new Vw automatic transmission fluid oil pan gasket with the oil pan and install the oil pan. Torque the screws to factory specifications.
-
Remove the Vw automatic transmission fluid oil pan fill plug (Image 7).
-
Using the high output pump (replaces Vw special tool VAG 1924) supplied with our Vw transmission filter kit, fill the oil pan with the Vw automatic transmission fluid until in runs out.
-
Reinstall the Vw automatic transmission fluid oil fill plug hand tight.
-
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.
-
Remove the oil fill plug while the car is at an idle and add more Vw automatic transmission fluid until it runs out. The final steps and procedures for topping off the Vw automatic transmission fluid level will vary depending on Vw model and year. It is critical to obtain the proper Vw automatic transmission fluid level to prevent Vw transmission shifting problems especially with tiptronic transmissions. You should refer to the factory Bentley manual or BLAUfergnugen's Vw automatic transmission fluid change instructions that are now included in our ATF filter kits.
