Not really easy to check the level since there is no dipstick but you can replace the ATF and filter. Take a look here http://www.blauparts.com/audi/audi_f...on_fluid.shtml
I suggest buying the kit from them as it is cheaper than buying all the components meal piece. Be sure to get 6 liters of Pentosin.
