Volkswagen Repair: tune up/maintenance, vw passat, vr 6


Question
what is the recommended transmission fluid for a 1995 VW Passat GLX VR-6 withauot trans?

Answer
Kevin,

Your VW parts department is the only place you'll get your fluid.  I don't think you can check the fluid yourself, it's usually OK, unless you see a leak.

Too often owners do more damage than good when they add fluids to the transmission.  I've never had to add fluid if there isn't a leak.
