The illustration on the reservoir of the charging device for CVT transmissions VAS 5162 displays a warning indication in the top left corner to use
ONLY the ATF specially formulated for CVT transmissions.

^

The illustration also shows pictures of the steps required to fill the transmission. These steps will be explained in the following.

CAUTION:  
^

Do NOT start the engine when there is very little or no ATF left in the transmission following a repair or as a result of a massive loss of ATF.

^

In this case you need to fill the transmission first with 4.5 to 5 liter of ATF.

Note:  
^

The ATF level will vary according to the temperature of the ATF.

^

If the ATF level is checked when the ATF temperature is too low, this will result in overfilling.

^

If the ATF level is checked when the ATF temperature is too high, this will result in underfilling.

^

Overfilling or underfilling will impair the function of the transmission.
