Change Transmission Fluid VW Tiguan 2018 8 Spd/Cambio de Aceite de transmission VW Tiguan 2018 8Vel

Changed the Transmission Fluid for a VW Tiguan 2018, 8Spd
I purchased a kit of parts from blue parts, it was very convenient since they sell you all the parts needed to change the fluid, filter, gasket and pump to put the new fluid back.
or you can find them directly from the VW dealership parts, just make sure you have all necessary parts and tools to do the service.

The Transmission fluid is an element that must be changed, even when the manufacturer says that is not needed, as you can see in the video, the fluid was too dirty at 75k miles, and in theory it got serviced around "68k" by the VW Dealer, charging me around 450, and it appears that the service was not performed due to the color of the fluid.
if you don't change the fluid, the estimation lifetime of the transmission of your vehicle is about 120k, and it can be increased to double if you do change fluid and filter every 30k.

Great video. Just a piece of advice to whom watches this video is to fill fluids with the car laveled.

[@garyallman3039]

And set the fluid level with car running and fluid at the correct temperature.

Hello Sir,
Can you advise how the transmission is performing since the service? I have a 2019 Volkswagen Atlas 3.6L and I am looking to buy the Blauparts kit and perform the same service myself. My current mileage is 70,000 so about the same as you.

@@chimesoffreedom9026 Hi Sir, it’s been working fine, I didn’t notice any difference, the only thing I noticed but not sure if has something to do, the operating temperate of the engine at peak time of use, use to be 219 F and now is around 206F

@@chimesoffreedom9026 Hello Sir,
I didn't notice any change on the performance of the vehicle, the only thing I noticed, the operation of engine temperature uses to be around 219F, and no is around 206F, I'm not 100% if something related with, I haven't changed the engine oil, so may be the transmission fluid change helped improve to temperature operation.
let us know how your experience with your atlas was and how bad was it when you opened.
