I just found the TDIClub article on How to change the ATF fluid & filter. I was unbeliveably well done with great pictures!!!!
Any DIY'er can do this!
Thank you all so much!!
I just purchased a used 2000 VW Beetle with 130,000 miles. I an in the process of changing the filter and am concerned. When I open the pan the filter was sitting on the bottom of the pan. The new filter has no mounting screws to the transmission boidy and only appears to be held in place by the friction of the gasket into the transmission body. Seems strange!!!
I also would like to know how to top of the system to the corrcet level during the refill process. I am told it is 3.2 Liter at 95 degrees. I have also heard to fill until it flows out the fill tube. Does any one have a detailed filter change instruction they can send me.
Love this site!!!
