i'm about to change the manual transmission fluid and just wondering how much fluid to buy? i looked in my bentley manual and i think it says 1 quart. Just wondering if anyone has changed the transmission fluid in their Audi? it looks fairly easy. I'm doing this to help remedy some possible wearing syncros. heard this will help. plus the whole lifetime fluid thing is kinda strange. any advice would be nice

 

also does anyone know if the manual transmission housing takes a special tool to get the nut(bolt) off?

 

ok i think i got all the info the AWD TT225 takes 2.7 quarts for the front tranny and the 1 quart for the haldex

 

yeah, haldex comes in what looks like a caulk tube. You'll need a special wrench for the filter (if your changing it). You can buy it from the modshack for around $40.

qt of fluid and a filter cost me $63 from the dealer.

 

yea i know already did the haldex like 2 months ago just waiting to do the front tranny.

 

oil grade 75W/90 synthetic FWD - 2.0 litres 4x4 AWD = 2.6 litres

 

does it take any certain tool or wrench to get off? i'm going to use MTL -90 by redline

 

its just a nut but not sure on the newer cars, if the MTL -90 is full synthetic then its ok

 

approx nut size is 17 to 19mm

 

thanks i thought it was around 17mm through 19mm
