This procedure is very similar for many DSG transmissions from 2004-2018. VW recommends doing this service every 40K miles. I have never seen dirty fluid when done at 40K miles and these transmissions are very reliable as long as you service them as recommended.
The kit I used in the video: Pentosin 8038207-KIT: amzn.to/3wt5OrH
If you prefer the Liqui Moly brand: Liqui Moly service kit: amzn.to/3RR8xXj
Hand pump: amzn.to/3XDmUi4
Fill adapter for DSG transmission only: amzn.to/41wBg6N
Fill adapter kit (for many vehicles including DSG): amzn.to/3QJ3vtH
These are both the same scanner:
Innova 5610: amzn.to/3ZFN3hc
Zurich zr15s: www.harborfrei...
14mm hex for drain plug: 33ftlb (45Nm)
8mm hex for fill level tube
5mm for the airbox bolt
24mm for the transmission filter housing
0:45 supplies needed
1:35 removing the cover and draining the DSG fluid
3:25 accessing the DSG filter
9:03 changing the filter and housing o-ring
11:35 reinstalling the filter
12:00 putting the top back together super fast
13:07 reinstalling the fill level tube and filling with fresh fluid
15:27 checking transmission temp 95-113F (35-46C)
16:20 draining excess fluid
16:53 reinstalling drain plug 33ftlb (45Nm)

@@Sprinter4783it really wasn’t that bad. I do all of my oil changes with Jack stands and it’s basically the same process. I will admit It was a little bit tricky working the pump while laying on the ground under the car, but to me easily worth the money savings. It’s definitely do able you just have to finagle with it a little bit. I jacked my car up, drained the old fluid, and then removed the filter. After that just put the new one in, get under it and fill it back up. It’ll take a bit of time and effort to do but again, worth the money saving for me.

Drain from the bottom first to avoid any overflow spillage when you remove the filter cap. Or, you can just place some towels around the filter cap. Does look like an aftermarket filter, so it was changed sometime in the past. About 15ftlb on the filter housing as per GTI specs. I think you forgot to cycle through the gears while the car was running during warm-up to get the oil distributed throughout the system.

This is just my experience, on three DSG VWs. I've had two 2 Passats and a Jetta TDI. Many DSG changes. Use Liqui-Moly not Pentosin. You can remember this advice when your transmission starts slipping at ~60 and your Passat sometimes doesn't want to shift. My experience, take it as you will. I had these symptoms again in my Jetta TDI and promptly drained the Pentosin and replaced it with Liqui-Moly. Transmission shop said I needed a rebuild. Nope. Good as gold now.

That's great to know! Thanks for the info. I have serviced many of these and haven't experienced any issues with the Pentosin fluid but I will remember this if I ever do. I have only logged about 60K miles personally on the DSG equipped TDi's.

@bennieaust
@bennieaust Год назад
It’s pretty normal on traditional automatics to run through the gears after you have completed the fill process but before setting the level. These DSG transmissions are a lot different that regular autos. I do not believe there is any benefit to running it thought the gears before setting the correct level.

What happens if you don't drain the extra fluid? After watching this video, I'm pretty much sure my mechanic has never done that
@bennieaust
@bennieaust Год назад
You want to get as much fluid out as you can. There will always be some left in the system and that’s not an issue. If you remove the drain plug and fill level tube, and then suck any extra fluid out of the filter housing you’ll be good. Sucking the fluid out of the filter housing is more to verify there isn’t any debris in there an to get the last little bit of fluid out.

Are you referring to the fact that this service needs to be done every 40K miles or the fact that you drain back out several ounces of DSG fluid to set the level? In either case I would humbly suggest that the VW emission scandal had a much bigger impact than this transmission service. You may want to look elsewhere for the most eco-friendly car. I absolutely love these cars (2012-2015 Passat TDi) for many reasons. They are not perfect or flawless. Don't over think it.

How are you supposed to fill the transmission and run the gears with the car running if the car is hoisted on jacks? Just doesn’t seem practical
@bennieaust
@bennieaust 7 месяцев назад
Practical or not, it's the procedure. I guess I'm not following why the (jacks?) make it impractical. There is no need to drive the car, or even for the wheels to turn. If you feel unsafe preforming any of this then I would definitely recommend just taking it to a shop.

@@bennieaust Thanks, that makes me feel more confident that its not overfilled. I was able to modify a cheap garden spray unit (Aqua brand in Australia) to use for an oil pump for top fill. The filter drain hole is 12mm diameter, and the plastic head for the spray wand was a bit more. Faster than gravity feed, and way less messy than bottom fill. Basically just put the oil in. push the wand into the filter drain hole, and go have a cuppa.
