TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE ON A 2014 VW JETTA

[@mogorisn3]

Good job getting it done Kenny. You are like 99.9% of us trying to do it ourselves for the first time. Almost never going to be perfect but your confidence, knowledge and ability increases every time you try.

[@stevedetra4578]

To check level when your done you need to remove the drain plug with the level plug still inside with the vehicle running. once it is barely coming out, its at the proper level

[@Balticblue93]

Always loosen the fill plug before draining it. Use only an OEM trans pan gasket and filter. They don’t cost much. Don’t buy the cheap crap. You can do a full flush or just do drain and fills once a week or month to get clean fluid in the entire transmission.

the black plastic filter he took out is for the 1.8T gen 3 the other flat metal one is for almost every other engine. I have the same black plastic filter. also you check and set the level with that little plastic 5mm allen plug that's inside the drain plug on the trans cover.. once empty reinstall it and the pan and there is a fill plug on the side of the trans and you fill it up until it starts leaking out the drain plug with the plastic tube installed and then you know that's the proper level.

Nice! Thanks for the information. I'm about to do this job on my car.

[@Balticblue93]

The flat filter is the most common. The larger filter is for the TDI I believe.

[@aneeqwaien5921]

What model Jetta is your vehicle just to confirm that I have the same?

[@dr.allenmartinez3682]

Do you know what’s the size for the filler cap?

[@redalert206]

Thanks for the tutorial, did it fix your issue you were having when you were feeling the small jerk in the trans?

[@Jay_z890]

Have u had any problems changing the fluid? Mine is a dark brown and hesitant on changing it bc idk if it’ll affect it

[@reelheel5919]

The drain plug is a 5mm allen wrench i believe

[@KennyLoyy]

yes it is

[@JS-sp2ms]

[@TheGeno2001h]

Hello is this the same 2015 Jetta 1.8 tsi ?

[@rotfled]

Nice video. Did you get a new rubber gasket or reuse the old one?

[@KennyLoyy]

I replaced the rubber gasket for the fluid pan

[@Balticblue93]

Make sure you use an OEM transmission gasket and most 1.8’s use the flat metal filter in the pan. Clean the magnets and pan really well.

[@tsebanks3988]

We can’t find that filter anywhere where did u but it can u post a link in description

[@ProdriveGT]

How many quarts?

[@davec.6293]

Others say car should be leveled for transmission fluid change .. (rear wheels to be jacked at same height)

[@i486DX66]

As long as he added the same amount of fluid that he took out, it shouldn't matter. It would only make sense to level if that helped more of the old fluid escape the transmission. But since he removed the pan, I don't think it matters

[@gasman5251]

That’s a smart tip, I wouldn’t even thought of that, thx

[@rickyhernandez6195]

How did you take out the filler one I'm using t50 but it's to small and t55 to big

[@willtins0407]

So what size was the filler plug?

[@HolgerDanske89]

5mm Allen@@willtins0407

[@RC135crewchief]

You're using torx when you should be using metric allens

[@papajiang8487]

is 9mm?

[@DavidMartinez-ki4fl]

Yo did your transmission filter come with an o ring? Like a rubber gasket? I ordered oem and it didn’t come with one and the one my car had also didn’t have it. So I just installed it without it. Should I redo the whole service but with an o ring this time?

[@lilsavagegod]

Bro yes u need the o ring like 100%
