Hey guys
I see the write up on this, but it directs to a myturbodiesel link that is no longer active

Is there another link or write up for the 09A?

I measured what I drained and added a few more ounces to compensate for seepage. It's good thing to snug up the pan bolts.

98 Jetta TDI AHU 1.9L (944 TDI swap in progress) I moved so now i got nothing but an AHU in a garage on a pallet.
adding the same amount is assuming it never leaked. back in the day its fine but now days its just foolish as the way to make sure its perfect is so easy, a bit messy but its easy. over fill or underfill and its going to overheat do to not enough fluid cooling things or too much and it gets foamy. don't skip the step when you check it at temp.

I did the "measure what comes out and replace that and a bit" method @ 275,000ish KM and now @ 401,XXXkm still works and shifts like a boss.

I've also got a scangauge II monitoring trans temps and they've been very consistent.
