Topping up ATF
  WARNING
t  Too much ATF leads to malfunctions and must therefore be extracted. ATF can be extracted from torque converter by using probe -V.A.G 1358 A/1- and extracting unit -V.A.G 1358A-.
t  Only ATF with the designation Dexron may be used. Do not use additional lubricants.
–  Use a funnel to add ATF. For a new filling, first add about 3 l.
–  Then start engine and shift through all selector lever positions with vehicle stationary.
–  Check ATF level → Chapter.
–  Use a lint-free cloth to wipe off the dipstick.
The ATF level is affected by the ATF temperature. The Min. and Max. marks on the ATF dipstick apply to an ATF temperature of 60° C.
