On just about any domestic I wouldn't have any problem finding this. But the Audi has me completely confused. Where do I fill the tranny fluid at? I can't even find a tranny dipstick under the hood of this thing. I know it's low due to the output shaft seal issues so I need to put some fluid in before something siezes up. I did several google searches to no avail?

It's an A6 4.2 AWD if that helps.

 

I could be wrong but there is a "fill hole" that you insert your little tube in and pump Transmission fluid until it comes out, thats how you know that your level is full...anyone willing to confirm?

 

Is this fill point on the tranny itself? Front, rear, sides?Thanks for the reply.

 

the trannny fill hole is under the car itself,i did it myself just last month

 

i did this awhile back. you have to have motor running to get to right level. the plug towards back is fill. one in front is drain. you have to put audi fluid back in or will have shift problems. trust me on this!!! its a bear getting it in also. don't try if not sure.

 

Awesome- thanks for the info. I have access to a lift so I'll just throw it up there. I know what you mean about shifts too- the fliud is slowly leaking out due to the leak and if you slow down too fast the tranny goes out of gear and or catches momentarily then slams back into gear. Parts are on their way but it'll probably be in the middle of the month by the time they get here.

Thanks again everyone for the replies- great help.
