How to change and drain the DSG transmission fluid in your VW w/ VAG6262

[@danjackson6388]

Thank you, from another technician. You waste no time and get right to the point in this video. If only everyone's videos were done like this.

[@daniel.gilliss6030]

Outstanding piece of instruction. VW wants $500 to do this to my wife's car. Thanks for the video

[@scubaluigi1]

I did the drain and replace the exact amount through the filter using the funnel with the hose on my 2006 Jetta TDI and it work perfect save me $170.00 from the dealer. Thank you guys very well explained you ROCK!

[@mencken8]

When we owned the Passat (before it got Dieselgated), I did this once, at 40K, rather than pay the absurd amount to have it done. This method works very well, and I did it in the garage, with ramps, did not consider leveling at all- no need to when it’s just drain / measure / refill. Drove it for another 35K before selling it back to VW. The only bitchy part was getting the battery tray out. Without that step, it would be a piece of cake.

[@matthewethier1977]

Did you refill from the top after you measured?

[@mencken8]

@@matthewethier1977 Yep, just filled it through the hole in the center of the filter housing. There’s a funnel called a “Flo-Tool” that fits it perfectly. And I ran the kitchen sink full of hot water and preheated the transmission oil bottles in it, made the fill very fast.

[@swingmanic]

Great video..Although I own a Skoda Yeti 2.0 litre tdi with 6 speed DSG, I presume the principle is the same..I'll probably fill from the top with around 4.6 litres, (A little slow I believe) run the engine until gearbox is the required temperature, run through the gears and then remove the drain plug and capture the excess fluid from above the plastic snorkel, replace the drain plug and voila, all is done! (I hope:)

[@nathanbradley6119]

You clearly know what you’re doing 👏👏👏. It’s not as simple as just draining, filling and changing filters then.

[@dfu1685]

Thank you so much for those tips! That appears to make the job much more doable. Thanks again.

[@fastyz400]

Great video. I didn't have vcds so, I used the water temperature as a gauge of my transmission fluid temp. i waited till the water temps raised above 100 deg. F. Then removed the hose for the final leveling drain. 35C equates to 95 deg F.

[@theodoremarakas9899]

It is not accurate at all. The coolant temp and the trans temp which is measured at 90 can vary depending on how long the car run for and the trans fluid takes much longer to warm up relative to the water temp. Maybe an infra red thermometer will give you a better base line but this method is certainly not recommended for accuracy

[@jerryreding7369]

So, I don't understand...if the capacity is 4.5 litres, why can't you just put that amount in, run through the gears, and call it good? Do I HAVE to drain some excess once it reaches operating temp?

[@tkrogs3535]

If you can change this cars oil you can change the DSG fluid as well. It is easy! You can do this faster by putting the fluid by a heater or in the sun. Drains into the top fill hole faster (if you go that route). I measured mine including the filter part and put back 4.6L. That was at 33,000 miles now at 38,000. No issues. Dealer quoted me $500 I laughed. Shop were I got my tune quoted me $300. Did it for $140.

[@Typhoon0627]

hahaha just had the dealer quote me $500 too... and I said "oh wow, that's it? How much extra would it be to have you guys replace the muffler bearings? I think they're starting to go out" which drew a death stare from the service advisor. Lousy pricks wouldn't even reset the service interval because I refused their $850 75k service. I love my A3 TDI, but I'm gladly giving it back and taking my settlement money to buy something where the dealer doesn't try to rape me for $500+ every 10k miles, when all it really needs is an oil change.

[@AbranMarquezGarcia]

What is the diameter of the tube I should squeeze into the filter plug?

[@tonyd3266]

changing the oil myself yesterday I found a dealer didnt tighten the 13mm oil canister drain correctly and it was dripping onto a wiring harness. Thank the Lord I decided to change at 3K myself this time instead of waiting 10K. Like someone in the Audi world said - how to get 300K out of your audi-- never return to the dealer.

[@tonyd3266]

I also tried to buy a DRL bulb for my car at the audi dealer 3 years ago - their expert parts guy brought out one incorrect bulb after another until I said -- can I see the bulb rack? every bulb had been put into the wrong tray for the drawer. And nobody there knew the difference. note to self: they are never touching my car again...

[@salyzproperties]

@@tonyd3266 agree. Last time I visited audi delrship at 45K, now at 216K and going.. Love my A3

[@caesarcruz6427]

I was pretty confident... until the filling up part :/

[@theodoremarakas9899]

One other way this can be done is take two identical buckets and weigh them. Weigh the fluid taken out and the filter together. Now you know the exact amount that you need to put back in. On the next bucket weigh the filter and put the matching weight of fluid. Use a small manual pump from ECS tuning to put the fluid back it. Done !!!! No need for VCDS and accurate to the last drop.

[@Gotta_Ketchup_All]

How would filling through the filter be done? I'm assuming that it's pretty straight forward and just pour fluid in. But I noticed how you had to suck fluid out, so is there some sort of separation in there?

[@MM2009]

Factory overflows these boxes by 160ml. This instruction for 6speed, 7speed has two drain caps and a filter on the engine side.. Drain oil first, then start with the oil filter. Remove mechatronix metal cap and drain remaining 1.3-1.5l of oil. This is the correct way to remove almost all 6l of oil. You've done 100's of these right???

[@Righteouness]

Yeah.. there seems to be an inconsistent measure throughout this video which can be very misleading.

[@jasonsmith7671]

[@VENUEATHENS]

Hi there! Thank you for this informative video!!! I have a 2004 Audi A4 1.8t with CVT Multi-tronic transmission.. It's a similar procedure, regarding filling fluid with slight differences in plugs, type of ATF fluid filter setup etc.. However the principles are the same proper fill temps between 35 - 45c, gravity fed pump, and drip fluid level check.. although there are two plugs on my particular transmission, one to drain and the other to fill.. I filled the same amount that came out 6quarts, while the care in the air, I then Attempted to cycle through the gears 2 second intervals on each PRNDS.. Unfortunately I got an abs light go on along with traction control light signifying brakes have failed.. There was resistance to the brake pedal as though it were pushing back against my foot, not sure if the trans is some how in sync with the brakes system (I have not touched the brake system at all), not sure whether I've done something wrong during the fill process to cause the brakes to react this way.. I have not put the car back on the ground to test whether this was a result of the wheels dangling off the ground freely.. I used a bug spray type pump with an adapter screwing onto the fill port to pump the Atf fluid in trans.. The pump builds pressure, 10 to 15 psi to pump fluid in trans.. not sure if pumping fluid in with this type pressure may have caused an issue V.S the gravity fed syle funnel.. Any feedback or suggestions will be great help and very much appreciated!!! Best regards Tony

[@andrzejdziuba]

thanks guys will do my s-tronic oil change tomorrow, save me a lot $$$

[@KerstenElizabeth]

So if I measure the fluid drained, I don't have to warm up the transmission at the end? I just fill it and remove the vas6262 then plug up the transmissions?

[@mandataruu8685]

start engine, put in neutral or idle and add oil in filter directly..its new oil get job done in 5 minutes

[@tonyd3266]

I think the overfill method is healthier for trans, as it washes away and flushes away more residue. its like doing an oil change and pouring a clean quart in with the drain plug out -- kinda flushes out a little more gunk and leaves clean residual oil instead of dirty. Never seen a car-change video doing the extra quart method on engine oil - but it makes sense with the price of these motors, smaller and closer tolerance bearings, and having 4 and 5 valves with over 50 hp per cylinder cylinder these days. think about the advanced additives VW has in oil -- spec 507 ! its not a complete waste of oils I hope.

[@GaryMarkowski]

Based on your comment, I have the impression the fluid levels are not correct in many cars then. I prefer to take the time to fill the transmission, start the car, put the transmission through all the gears, put it into park, what for the temp to get to 100 F, remove the drain plug keeping the car running, and closing the plug once you have reached about 105 F. This likely will result in a more accurate amount of fluid.

[@paulwary]

So you're definitely meant to keep the car running after the correct temp is reached, when you remove drain plug again? It doesn't splash the oil around and release too much?

[@GaryMarkowski]

@@paulwary When the engine is running, the pump in the transmission is pushing the fluid up, and there is less fluid in the bottom of the pan. Yes, it is important that the engine is running when you remove the plug and when you reinsert the plug. Once the plug is back in place you can then turn off the engine. If you remove the plug when the engine is off, then too much fluid will come out and you will need to refill and retest.

[@paulwary]

@@GaryMarkowski Thanks. So it's the exact opposite of what I imagined!

[@tcpatfehr]

I pried off the cap on the trans vent and put a A/C vacuum pump to the vent and poured the fluid the oil filter cavity, goes in almost as fast as you can pour it through a trans funnel

[@mitchelllarson8680]

Can you leave the 8mm drain plug in while gravity does its job refilling the transmission reducing the amount of waste?

[@weskarp7643]

This seems a lot more complicated than I was thinking. Especially the special tool used to drain the excess oil. Having to have the oil at the right temps at certain times. Also a computer needed if u want it done right. ALOT could go wrong. I would recommend to the average mechanic for a professional to do this procedure. It'll be worth the extra $300, knowing that the 2nd most important part of your car was done right.

[@kevinosgood2526]

I hope you can help I am working on a 2013 Jetta Hybrid. I'm trying to find how to top off fluid or change the filter in the transmission being that it has no reverse. Cannot find any videos on hybrid Transmissions mine is a code PMY

[@dankcorey2424]

Can you fill the transmission at the filter rather than though the drain plug?

[@n9wox]

Yes, but very, very slow to put fluid back in that way. You have to measure the drained fluid and only add that much back in.

So far this video was a great how too video and exactly the same car as mine.

Hoping the video publisher or soneone can give me some insight if this is possible or not because i really dont have an air compressor to do what he did to fill it back up.

[@yiranjack]

I am wondering, if i just put back the same amount that I drained. Can I put the oil back from the filter whole?

Then 2nd & 3rd gear will chatter when you get it the fuel hard.. If I drove soft all is fine.. If I shift manually, and you give it the fuel hard it is all works fine... Someone told me that the fluid must have gotten hot and needs changing... It has been 78,000 miles since the last change... What do you think...?

[@anuruddhadissanayake4881]

Wow amazing video! Very informative

[@gigeldehohentoler9629]

Where does that oil come from? the one that pours when you remove the plug, before the plastic pipe? If at the previous oil change you do the oil level it is supposed to be below the tip of the plastic pipe and is not supposed to pour anything.

[@fraymond3]

It's residual oil that's in the stove pipe.

[@henryng439]

Is it okay to leave an slight excess of new transmission fluid inside the DSG? Or, is it a must to drain the excess using the snorkel method?

[@halohms]

2005 Beetle TDI with DSG transmission - took out 4.4L of old oil, Filled using the bottom method using 5 Litres and measuring oil temp with the software but when I removed the hose, there was no 0.5L coming out of the overfill tube. Car was made level by leveling the centre of the front to back wheels and using ramps and lowering the tire pressure. Why didn't I get any fluid come out? Is there a problem or should I just drain 0.5L out manually. Does it hurt to have 0.5L more than the 4.5L?

[@romanprophotographer]

Hi. My VW touareg v8 leaked transmission fluid from condenser and doesn't have dip stick to check fluid level. How to check fluid level or add fluid since mine leaked out over time? Thanks...

[@davidbarthel9976]

Can you add fluid through the filter area?

[@drewnashty]

Why not leave VAG6262 on but drain the hose of the excess fluid into a container, and wait for it to stop dripping? Then simply unscrew the tool when you're only going to spill a few drops instead of it pouring all over. It amazes me how much people waste towels on to clean up things not necessarily made in the first place.

Hello, where do you refill the fluid? from the photo, it looks like you refill it from the filter? am I right? Thanks!

Also, forcing fluid into transmission using compressed air? there must be a pressure relief valve on the transmission I assume or else you might blow seals couldn't you compromise the pressure relief valve if you use too much air pressure? You also talked about measuring the drained fluid and replacing with same amount, what about the fluid in the old filter how do you measure that not to mention the spilled fluid?

[@RobinGWakker]

I agree with what you described. The video has it wrong, its confusing to say 4.5 and then 5.5. The VW Workshop manual on the DSG 02e mentions to fill 5 liters and then drain after the gear box has reached 35 to 45 celcius, of course having cycled each gear. Im actually to do this job myself first time this week, so hopefully it works well.
