This guy is really, really good at explaining how to do it right. He needs his own tv show.
this is the best video yet on VW transmission maintenance, thank you very much sir
i agree. i am less nervous about attacking my 2002 vw cabrio..he needs to relax though...good video though. thank you
Wanderfool video this is the best I sow thank you 👌
Best video on VR6 Transmission fluid and Filter replacement on TH-cam. I have a 1999 VW Jetta VR6 and this is by far the most detailed and clear video on the net. Thank you so much.
Your suggestion on not removing the overflow stem because its plastic is great because there's really no need to remove it & its very risky especially if your not working under a car lift. I probably would have figured this out after doing it the first time but im glad I ran across your video because removing that step is a very good precaution. That stem was actually my main concern.
Thanks so much for the video. This is exactly what I needed. I wasted a whole day searching for a good vid on this procedure. I was finding some that just showed doing it without explanation and the whole procedure just looked sloppy or they just glossed over so many things that you had touched up on. Your explanation was thorough and clear. And, that means I can follow and understand. Thanks....not just a thumbs up but 5 stars!
I got my 2001 GTI new I think my repair man did not do a good gob servicing the car in the last year. The engine light came on last week and took it to him and he still did not do it right, the light came on again. I took it to the VW dealership, they give me a big bill .I have to get it done I know they will do it right . Watching this video motivate me to check on my car in the future . I usually never do anything on a M/V .Sir, you make it look easy to do work on a car. I will be watching YOU TUBE on any problem that comes up in the future to get it fixed myself. Thanks you. I'll be following your channel. Thanks again.
This is the best guidance I've seen on how to do this right. It is a slightly awkward procedure, anyway, because you need a level and solid base, to jack up the car, but you will not be paying a huge labour bill at a dealers to do something like this correctly. Thanks.
Super awesome video, but something I learned is that if you don’t replace your transmission fluid regularly replacing it can actually corrode and wear away your seals.
Hi
A matter-of-fact instructional video by a mechanic who obviously knows his stuff...unlike other videos that add bs comments and crappy music.
Btw, the procedure is identical for my Mk3 Golf except that the drain plug is also a 5mm Allen key (same as the plastic overflow pipe). I used Pentosin the first time and ZF5 ATF the second time. Both are expensive and both work very well. I bought the filter and gasket from RockAuto.
Hey thanks for that I got a Volkswagen but man what you what you just showed me help me out a lot thank you
Very nice, thanks!! Im going to do this on my 2000 VW jetta 2.0 4 cyl auto trans,
Congratulations for the video, very well explained
How did this go for you ?
I'm glad I came across this video. It answered a lot of questions I had . Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.
Excellent brother! you did a thorough job of instructing. Thanks
Very useful information and great presentation. Thank you
Hi thanks for the video. I have one question. Do I keep the engine running when doing the drip test when checking the level?
Great Video- Thank you for the valuable information.
Thank you my friend! Super helpful video. Very thorough.
Thanks a bunch i have 2001 Golf this Video was helpful my local garage asking 210. because need "Special Tool" also good to know options of lower price tyranny oil
I also opting to add Drain plug so as to drain easier next time servicing
Hey "Dan" thanks for the torque spec's
and "423million" like your sense of humor had me Rollin
Great video
Thank you for helping a simple guy like me!
This video is amazing thank you so much
Very thorough video. I appreciate you taking the time to do this.
Really great video. Thanks so much brother... God bless you, thank you, e z to explain and now im confident to do it myself, I have a slight transmission leak also. 🙏😎💪
My 2003 jetta GLS 2.0 has been in limp mode, the only other time it wasn’t , was when I had to get a new alternator and it shifted great for a month or two without the CEL. When the CEL came back, the car went into limp mode. Went to autozone & I had codes p0743 (two of them), my mechanic says I should change the solenoids but that might not be a permanent fix. I have been thinking about flushing my transmission fluid, do you think this can help my car get back to normal since I have read that dirty transmission fluid could throw those same codes. He also suggested to just get a another used transmission for a more secure way of fixing it.
What do you think ? I want to sell it but I don’t want to sell it like this.
Love the video. It is very informative, practical and packed with useful tips. I do not wish to be rude, but as you are giving a tutorial, it would be extremely helpful to at least mention the torque-specs for the bolts as everyone will not be comfortable with the guess tight method. As some of us do not have your extensive experience and do not wish to mess up our wife';s car by not torquing the bolts correctly. I believe that you can get it right by feel, I'm just not sure that I can. I love your video in every other respect and will check your site out when I do other repairs. Keep up the good work
It seems from the web that the torque for the pan bolts is 11 foot pounds.

The annoying thing about my golf 4 cabrio is that it is mechanically a golf 3, yet it appear to have the transmission of a golf 4. Thanks for the video :)
thanks for the video man! super informative and clear to understand!
Very well done with clear explanations and video. Thank you.
Great video/information! Thanks so much!
Good explanation with very helpful information. Well done.
great video men thanks
Very thorough demonstration. Thank you for sharing.
how many quarts of transmission fluid it takes ?
Excellent video.
Thumbs up bud well explained for even a dummie like me 😂😂👍👍👍
You my friend are amazing thank you for being great at explaining ❤❤❤❤
If fluid is at correct temperature can you check fluid level with the engine off?
Great Video! Thank you for making this! Really well explained.
Great video my friend👍🏿 very helpful. I believe I'm going to be changing my own now.
excellent instructions. thanks. I was curious if the filter has a notch to ensure it's oriented correctly when sliding on.
thanks for the video. I just purchased a 2001 jetta VR6 and this will help me out to do oil change in the transmission.
thank you for the walkthrough, it helped alot!
This video helped a ton.
video well done, what about showing how to change transmission fluid and filter for Jetta 2010 limited edition,thanks bud.
Excellent video......Thank you for sharing this info:)
Which type ? Auto or manual trans??
Do you think this’ll remedy p0732? I just bought a Jetta for $800, and it was not disclosed to me that the transmission won’t shift into 2nd until the car has warmed up
Thanks a lot, very helpful video and explanation !
My MK3 (1998) Jetta has the same exact fill plug. I want to tmchange the filter and fluid. Is there a torque spec on the oil pan bolts?
Great job and video, I would suggest taking off all jewellery and watches etc when doing this job.
Do you have a video on replacing shift solenoids?
Should you put all five to six quarts in that way or can you just add 1 quart that way and then the rest from the transmission dipstick? I have a 95 Passat it's similar set up
Excellent video! Thanks!!
Good job, quite clear explanation, Big thanks
Great video, thank you so much!
Yeah...MK4's have at least 3 different types of transmission.. I just noticed your model when u said VR6 engine. Thanks

Thanks very much! This was a very informative video and helped me get a much better understanding of the things unique to the MK4 Jetta automatic tranny!
Are you pulling the drain plug while the engine is running? (when filling it back up)
Thank you so much you saved me alot of money
I'll be doing this once my Trans cooler and filter come in. Super content with this video. And I have all the confidence. Only one question, while filling up the Trans when I get done installing the Trans pan, should I fill it up first with the amount that came out, let it warm up to temp, go through all gears, then pop the plug and go from there? I will also be making sure that while the car is on jack stands, it's gonna be completely level. Also, what size hose should I get, looks like 5/8th maybe?
Awesome video. Thanks! Great explanation
Awesome video.
How many quarters of transmission fluid do you use for this vehicle?
Very good job, this filter is only for gti models or and 1.6 models?
If you go to change your fluid and you see metal shavings in your fluid, would it be advised to continue with the job as normal or would it be a waste to complete the job?
SUPER VIDEO! SUCH A GREAT HELP!
Does 2005 Golf TDI have the same transmission ? Thank you for the video !
Nice Video i think i will manage my vw polo auto with round light 16v 2004
Great video, I need to change the trans filling tube, it is possible, do I´ve to remove the oil pan?
Thanks.
How often should this be done?
Will this be the same process for a Volkswagen Jetta wagon
What temperature does the engine and trans have to be ?
This is a good video you should enable the “like/dislike” option because you would have a lot of likes and more success with the video.
Is this procedure for Auto and Manual Transmissions or just manual transmissions?
I would like to ask if different oils are mixed together, is it okay? The specifications are the same? I think your long-term oil is mixed with red gearbox oil. Is it okay?
You sure your coolant didn't mix with your transmission oil? This happens when the coolant box is bad
I need how to fill the transmission fluid on the 2002 only and how much it takes.
asking what of ATF in the Torque coveter no need for it to drain?
THANKS.... very helpful !!
I have heard that it's not advised to change the fluid on a high mileage transmission due to the worn gears not being able to accept the clean new fluid.
With that in mind, would it be advised to just add some fluid or stop slip to the correct level in the case of an old transmission with dark fluid and fine metal powder in it?
muy buena la explicación
What's the best place to find exactly what fluid and kit I need for my 2003 jetta go 2.0 I 485
If you’re still looking my state has a good euro car company , FCP Euro , everything delivered fast , all with warranties , if you’re in ct you’ll see your package in a couple days , I grabbed the kit and genuine fluid for my 1.8t and spent around $50-60
Good Job
Hi can you show us a DSG tipronic 5 speed oil change on a TDi?
Is this a complete flush? Or just draining half and adding a new transmission filter and gasket
Great video! I needed this info. Thanks
Hi i have a vw bora 1.9 automatic GNY 5 speed 2005 i can not find any videos on changing the automatic gearbox oil. Its the 5 speed not the 4 speed. I want to know the oil capacity and how to check the level.
Thanks
Sir iam from kerala....this gear box ...d mode drive time nogear change...what is the reason
well done masters
Thx for the vid
Thank you.
I have a rabbit 2007 automatic so when I drive it for a few minutes 1st and 2nd hit hard will that help my issue the selonida and filter ?
I tried this and it didn’t really work for me. The most easiest way to do this job and don’t have to worry about putting to much or to less is to get the kit. They are about $53 on eBay. 3-Liter exactly to refill. Oil and filter. I also put the old atf back in the new empty bottles and measure if I put the same amount.
thanks for the nice video, how do you know it is operating temperature, is it related to engine temperature? In the beginning of video, is it recommended to remove the drain plug or not?
talk2stars You will need VAGCOM, it’s a very expensive tool for VW and most European cars. Believe me, I bought one and try to do this job myself. The Most problem people have doing this job is putting the right amount of ATF. The tranny has to be in between 95F - 113F and leave. Too save you the trouble, just buy the kit on online. Comes with 3L ATF and filter, No need to worry about putting too much or less.
How many liters does the gearbox have
Thanks for the info.
But one thing. car needs to be level when checking fluid level?
What's the right torque for the bolts holding the pan of the gearbox in Nm?
maximo 9 nm se passa pode estraga a rosca da caixa
03 VW Jetta 2.0 150k miles automatic, hard time engaging on cold. It almost feels like it’s a manual transmission because it bounces in and out.
Would changing the oil fix this is this a solenoid.
Any advice would be deeply appreciated. Thanks
YES! HOPE YOU CHANGED IT BY NOW. HOPEFULLY NO DAMAGE WAS DONE. GOOD LUCK!

Did this Jetta have a 4-Speed Auto Transmission in it?
Cause I have a 5-Speed Auto and I heard it’s a bit different changing oils compared to the 4-Speed?
