Procedure
l  Gearbox in vehicle
The procedure for the standard ATF change only involves replacing approx. 55 ... 60 % of the total ATF in the gearbox.
The “ATF purging procedure” has to be employed if all the old ATF in the gearbox is to be removed.
ATF purging is always necessary when performing the following work:
t  Renewing the input shaft
t  Servicing the input shaft
This involves performing the test procedure twice, as described below, and then changing the ATF.
This is the only way to ensure complete renewal of the ATF in the gearbox.
  Caution
Components in the gearbox will be damaged if the steps are not carried out exactly as described.
–  Following gearbox installation: Replenish ATF → Chapter „Replenishing ATF for ATF purging“.
  Caution
t  After fitting the gearbox with a new clutch pack or a new input shaft, the vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system -VAS 5051B- must be used before driving the vehicle to check whether update programming is required in the automatic gearbox control unit -J217-.
t  Gearbox components will be damaged if update programming is necessary but is not carried out.
t  Gearbox components will be damaged if update programming is not necessary but is carried out nevertheless.
Checking whether update programming is required in the automatic gearbox control unit -J217-:
l  Vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system -VAS 5051B- must be connected.
–  On the vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system -VAS 5051B-, access the vehicle-specific Guided functions.
–  Select the vehicle.
–  Select the following in the functions:
  W00-10211
Message line to be selected
02 - Gearbox electronics 01J or 02 - Gearbox electronics 0AN
 J217 - Gearbox control unit for multitronic, functions
  J217 - multitronic, update programming

  Note
This vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system -VAS 5051B- procedure ensures that update programming in the automatic gearbox control unit -J217- is only implemented when required.
–  If necessary, perform update programming in the automatic gearbox control unit -J217-.
