i did discconnet battery- its still in safe mode- i think you are right low fluid- there is a red plug if you will on the back drivers side of engine- its says ATF DEXRON- in a tube- to add fluid- but no stick? i want to ad the right amount and fluid!!

HELP!!!

Thanks DLHO

 

The tranny needes to be warmed up, then level checked and added as needed. getting the tranny to temp is hard, right temp that is. you can simply check on after driving for 5-15 min, then carfully toping the fluid all way through. Wont be presice, but close to.
That remids me, I should check it as well on my car.

 

ok- but no stick to tell me if its right???? how much- i got dexron 3- is that ok???

 

if its like a cap on the tranny, then you just top off till its full, if it has a tube for the stick, then ether stick is missing, or audi got confused when assembled the car.

 

its an automatic- and there is a tube into the tranny- and on top there is a red cap- with the words AUDI- ATF DEXRON- no stick attached??

car is in safe mode - so i am worried about the tranny-

and do not want to scew it up!!!!

 

same here, looks like you are missing the stick. Does the cap looks like it should have the stick atached?

 

no- its a red cap- with a black rubber seating- about 2 or so inches long- no stick was ever there-

so how do i know how much to add- as i am still in safe mose and can not drive it for 15 minutes? just add 1 quart od the dex #??

 

k, I dont know how to measure without the stick, so try adding a quart and see where it brings you to

 

how many quarts does it hold??? thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

should be 4 L in converter and 4L in tranny, thats usual.
