Volkswagen Fluids

[@scottlarson9272]

Um... you missed two of the basic fluids, the brake fluid and the power steering fluid. Where/how do I check these two fluids? Thanks!

[@bmingo2828]

VW no longer uses hydraulic power steering systems. They use electric power steering, so no more fluid)

[@Jb.art1]

Plus, if there is a problem with your VW, the infotainment system on your dash will notify you about low fluids, low tire pressure, etc.

Any reason why brake oil/fluid isn't covered in this video? It is certainly more important than visor/windshield fluid 🤔.

[@glareicebutts1423]

every vw since 2016 has had electronic power steering, it’s far less important than the water in the puddles you drive over.

Thank you for this but do another one where you include all fluid locations including the power steering, brake fluid and any other not mentioned

[@zumik83]

Power steering is electric, so no fluid there.

where is the power steering fluid?

It’s electronic

Great video but can u add in transmission fuild, brake fuild and power streeing.

I found this video very useful as a newbie in this department. I will be checking my cars fluids in the morning

You check your battery and alternator. Power steering is electric, so no fluid there.

We want to know about VW power stering fluid location and how to replace/fill. Whatever you are showing is way too basic stuff and If anyone does not know that, they shouldn't even drive.

[@dvdvideo1234]

My car says G12 in the manual. Does this mean I can load G13 as well ?

[@tyroneazemas9620]

What about the transmission fluid

[@audiproducts8087]

I was wondering the same thing

[@wen6ys]

transmission fluid is underneath the car in most cases. My VW its very difficult to access the transmission fluid. Most cases wrong trans fluid/fluid levels will mess up your transmission permanently. best to let mechanics handle transmission stuff

[@robasher8788]

I’ve a problem with my vw beatle break guild is up to level and has been bled by Machanic but pedal goes straight to floor when engine is turned on when off break feels normal is it something to do with the vacuum or is it ABS sensor that’s had it please help very informative was your video

[@gregfagan38]

where's the transmission fluid? - Where's the ...

[@jennyomalley7634]

What about clutch and breaks ??

[@Thecak3isalie]

depending on your model and year the clutch and brake system may be INTEGRATED. Either Way, you can't go wrong using DOT4 as it is formulated to work better in hotter temperatures and fights against moisture buildup better than DOT 3 (technically brake fluid is actually hydraulic fluid) DOT 4 is backwards compatible. DOT3 is ONLY good in DOT3 applications. * I have a 2013 TDI Manual (6 Speed) Be sure not to make my mistake and try to flush and replace the DOT4 Fluid properly about every 50-60k or else you will have expensive issues replacing the slave cylinder when it fails. Even if you go to a professional Non-dealership location to do the proper flush, it shouldn't cost more than $80-$100. Ignore it ? Try more like $900 for repairs because of the location of the slave cylinder. :(

[@bentara710]

Where does the power steering fluid go please

[@harrisdave]

Later model VWs, like the GTI he's using as an example, have electric power steering, so no power steering fluid or pump.

[@ervinhart1511]

[@harryberry474]

Electric Power Steering, not fluid driven anymore.

[@jonschwindt3064]

Bet that’s an after market dip stick. My 2012 Touareg comes with none. Dealer wanted 1k to replace sensor . Got a dip stick installed for $100

[@tonyyero7231]

The coolant fluid should NOT be topped off due to expansion. It should be filled between the MIN and MAX line! Also G13 is compatible with G12++ Some tanks still show G12 not G13 as the video shows.

[@8383kathy]

Very helpful. I wondered as. My VW shows G 12 and the dealer sold me G13. Makes sense

[@vorbitzz5797]

There is a lot wrong with this video, you mentioned windshield washer fluid as "very expensive to buy" I can't tell if you are joking or not lol and you also forgot to include two other important liquids such as the transmission and the brake fluid. You also addressed that the coolant must be the Volkswagen pink formula liquid. This is also not true, yes it might be recommended but many more coolants can work just as fine, as well as the Castrol that's also recommended due to the additives in the oil, you can use other oil brands as long as they meet the viscosity specs. Hope this helps! And for anyone who may be seeing this, most newer VWs typically have electric power steering, requiring no fluid whatsoever.
