ATF & Filter Replacement

Volkswagen and Audi consider the transmission to be filled for life ­considering how many folks sell/total a car before 100k miles, this may well
be true. But for the rest of us who enjoy keeping a multikilo buck expenditure
around for a while, keeping the transmission happy should be a top priority ­diluting fluid which has broken down due to heat, removing wear-in metal
particles from the pan magnets, etc. For the most part, just changing the fluid
every 30k miles should ensure a long life, with a proper filter change and fluid
flush every now and then. Of course, at this point the issue of the "sealed"
transmission pops up and ruins everyone's day. We should be worried about
overfilling the tranny, right?

As per the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Don't Panic.

While VW makes a fuss about checking the fluid level between 95-113° F,
there's a reasonable bit of allowance in this specification for a properly
operating transmission. During my fluid drain, I started by checking the
existing fluid level with the transmission at ambient temperature (around 60°
F at the time), theoretically resulting in zero fluid flowing from the level
cutout. In reality, about a quart of highly darkened fluid poured out of the
transmission. In total, I drained 3.7 quarts of ATF and completely filled the
transmission after the specified 2.7 quarts. The main cause of this points to a
factory mistake - the factory overfilled the transmission by a full quart, and
the car's been operating like this for the past 4 years/60,000 miles. The other
possibility is that fluid from the torque converter drained back into the
transmission pan - however, a fluid level check some weeks later showed the
transmission to be properly filled.

Considering the state of the fluid that was drained, a complete flush, filter
change, and installation of a transmission fluid cooler is slated for the near
future...stay tuned.

Unfortunately, the car was in an accident at 63k,
~6 months after the ATF service, at a total loss.
In the duration, however, the transmission
operated perfectly, with the smooth shifts I'd
appreciated when the car was first purchased.
Over the period, some further research into the
transmission turned up some of the following.

The VW/Audi Tiptronic transmission is
manufactured by ZF, model 5HP19FL (A4 '96-'02,

A6 '98-'01 A8 '97-'99, Passat '98 -> '05).
Incidentally, this transmission and some of its
variants are also used in late model BMWs, which
may help expand the research base if you have a
particular question regarding this system.
Considering the cost of the ATF through normal
VW parts sources, I'd hoped that a suitable
aftermarket replacement could be found ­however, ZF seems to VERY STRONGLY
recommend that only a particular fluid be used,

that is, Esso LT 71141. I spent some time
speaking to ZF distributors in the US hoping to
find an inexpensive source for the fluid ­unfortunately, the fluid is normally stocked as
drums, and most would sell by the quart at
relatively high prices ($15-$19 USD). While a few
of the distributors were curious as well about the
compatibility of various other fluids, ZF would not
honor warranty issues without the Esso fluid,
precluding the ability to test out alternate fluids.

You can find some more information on the
transmission and fluid through the following
documents:

ZF 5HP19FL Spare Parts Catalog - includes ZF's

fluid filling procedures for the transmission and
differential.

ZF 5HP19FL Data Sheet (Deutsch)
ZF 5HP19FL Exploded View
Esso LT 71141 Specifications - note that this is a

rough translation from a Russian language page.
Also note that the fluid is usually referred to as
"long-life", not unlimited life. A service interval of
~75k miles is given.

BMW Model Range Transmission Overview - look

for blue.

The online retailers seem to now be stocking a
Pentosin ATF for VW/Audi applications. If this
fluid is an appropriate substitute, chances are
increasing that other good quality makes of
synthetic ATF would be perfectly acceptable.
Prime candidates are Mobil1 Synthetic ATF and
Redline High-Temp ATF.

Many thanks to Geri, who took a few pics while
changing ATF, including dropping the pan and

replacing the filter. Also note his comments at the
end of this page.

Also, the fluid filling procedure has been slightly
changed, to reduce the time needed to fully refill
the transmission.

August 12, 2004

Added ZF's spare parts catalog for the 5HP19FL.

February 2, 2005

Quaker State Multi-Vehicle ATF is confirmed as a
suitable replacement for LT 71141 - it's also a
synthetic ATF (update - this should read synthetic­blend ATF. 08/05/2005), and specifically
discusses Esso compatibility: Quaker State Multi-

Vehicle ATF Datasheet (Deutsch). Note that the

application chart only lists VW/Audi models up to
2000 - if you have a later year model and know
that it's tranny uses LT 71141, the Quaker State
is still a fine replacement. The nice thing is that
it's available pretty much everywhere, and
inexpensive (~$3/quart). At that price, a filter
and fluid change should run around $50. At that
price, it's also reasonable to pick up a few extra
quarts and just flush the system - check the
additional resources below for some pointers on
ATF flushes (simple procedure).

Minor update to note that Quaker State Multi­Vehicle ATF is also sold as Pennzoil Multi-Vehicle
ATF. Added a link to an ATF & filter change on the
5HP30 tranny under "Additional Resources" below.

August 5, 2005

Update to note that Valvoline MERCON V is also a
confirmed suitable ATF for ZF trannies.

(manufacturer statement)

Note that the ATF types listed here are brands
that have very specifically stated full compatibility
with ZF transmissions. The advantage of this is
peace of mind - any fluid-related transmission
problems can be directly taken up with the ATF
manufacturer (though after several years of use
there have been no reports of problems using
approved non-Esso fluids). Currently, that is not
possible with Mobil1 or Redline, two providers of
fully synthetic ATF (there has also been at least
one report of Mobil1 actually degrading shift
quality in the 5HP19). The transmission is
perfectly happy with synthetic-blend ATFs such as
Pennzoil & Valvoline - that's exactly what it was
shipped with from the factory.

Any performance differences between the various
fluids are *VASTLY* exceeded by the
performance benefit of replacing broken-down
fluid with a fresh fill.

Part Information & Sources:

Note - always confirm part numbers by looking at the actual part mounted in the car! Mistakes will happen
sometime, somewhere.

Part numbers:

Transmission fluid G 052 162 A2
Check/fill plug seal 01V 321 379
Drain plug & seal 01V 321 377

Note - unfortunately, the seal and drain plug are available together only, around

$10 or so.
Pan gasket 01V 321 371
Filter 01V 325 429
Filter seal 01V 325 443

OEM Pricing: ~$15/liter
Quaker State/Pennzoil Multi-Vehicle ATF: $3/quart
Valvoline MERCON V ATF: $3/quart

You'll need 6 quarts, or 4 quarts if you're not dropping the pan and changing the filter.

Tools:

● 8mm socketed hex (Allen) driver

● 17mm socketed hex (Allen) driver

● Torque wrench, low range up to 20 ft-lbs or so. Only needed if dropping the pan and replacing the

ATF filter.

● Torque wrench, capable up to 60 ft-lbs

The 17mm driver can be found at your local AutoZone in a nice multipack, less than $10. It also includes a
14mm driver that can be used to remove the driveshaft to wheel hub bolts if you need to do work on the
halfshaft (CV boots/joints).

ATF Drain:

http://www.taligentx.com/passat/maintenance/atfchange/ (3 of 13) [5/8/2008 7:19:11 PM]

taligentx.com: Passat - ATF & Filter Replacement

1. Start by raising the car on jackstands (no one is considering working under the car with just a tire
jack, right?). Use four jackstands, as the transmission must be level during the fluid check.

(illustration)

2. Keeping a pan nearby, open the check/fill plug with the 17mm hex driver. Some fluid should pour
out - with the engine off, the fluid level in the pan will be higher than it is during operation.
However, far more fluid came out of my transmission than should have. (illustration)

3. Move the pan under the drain plug and open it with the 8mm hex driver. There should be a nice
flow of black fluid. (illustration)

4. Allow the fluid to drain for a while.

5. Install a new drain plug and tighten to 30 ft-lbs / 40 Nm.

6. Compare new fluid to old fluid - yes...definitely in need of a flush. (illustration)

7. If you're not changing out the ATF filter and cleaning the magnets (recommended), skip down to
ATF refill.

ATF Filter Change:

8. Remove the ATF pan - there are many bolts securing the pan. Note that there will still be some fluid
in the pan, so take care.

9. With the pan off, you'll see the valve body and ATF filter. Remove the two bolts securing the filter,
and gently pull off the filter.

10. Lubricate the new filter's seal with some ATF, and install. Tighten the two bolts to 54 inch-lbs / 6
N-m.

11. Clean off the pan with a lint-free cloth - especially the magnets. If the transmission is in good
condition, there should only be some fuzz on the magnets. If you see bits of metal and large
particles, start digging deep into your savings. :)

12. Replace the pan. The bolts should be tightened in a star pattern, making several passes until all
bolts are installed and ready for final tightening (don't install and fully tighten a bolt in one step).
This ensures that the pan doesn't warp, preventing a good seal. Tighten to 84 in-lbs / 10 Nm.

ATF Refill:

13. Add fresh fluid through the check/fill tube until it begins to overflow. A plastic cap covers the fill
tube, with a square cutout to the side - this allows fluid to be added and excess fluid to overflow. To
get fluid into the hole, I used a length of vinyl tubing - one end inserted through the cap's cutout,
the other attached to a funnel several feet from the ground. Pour fluid in the funnel, transmission
gets filled. By the way, VAG's special tool does the same gravity feed, by hanging from a raised
hood. A fluid pump should also work well. (illustration)

14. After the fluid slows to a dropwise overflow, leave the filling apparatus in place and start the engine.
With the engine idling, the transmission oil pump will run, dropping the fluid level.

15. Add fluid until it overflows again.

16. With the engine still idling, press on the brakes and move the gear selector through all gears,
pausing at each gear for a few seconds. This will circulate fluid through the valve body and may
drop the level a bit.

17. Add fluid until overflow.

18. By now, the fluid should be warm, and at the correct level. Reinstall the check/fill plug with the new
seal and tighten to 59 ft-lbs / 80 Nm. After the seal is in place, shut down the engine.

19. You should check the fluid level again after a few days - reusing the check/fill plug seal won't pose a
problem, but the seal is inexpensive if you feel like replacing it for every check. Before doing this
final check, start with the engine cold and drive around for a mile or two - this should get the
transmission up to the specified temperature range (95-113° F) - Haynes' seat of the pants method
is to feel the transmission pan. If it feels warm but not hot to the touch, the fluid should be in the
correct range. Considering the amount of factory overfill in my transmission, this methodology is
more than accurate enough.

Update:

July 13, 2003 - It's also easy enough to use the shareware version of VAG-COM to monitor the ATF
temperature, if you're not interested in VAG-COM's other abilities - an interface cable can be built

from commonly available electronic components for around $10 or so. More information on this to
be added.

That's pretty much all there is to it. Enjoy!

Additional note from Geri:

OK, I will try to explain but beware of my bad English:

My Tranny was shifting very rough, when shifting from "D" to "R" I had a ugly noise and a
rumble in the car. I was told from our local VW Dealer that I do not have to change the Fluid,

http://www.taligentx.com/passat/maintenance/atfchange/ (4 of 13) [5/8/2008 7:19:11 PM]

taligentx.com: Passat - ATF & Filter Replacement

its "Lifetime" filled. I can`t believe that. So I asked a lot of People, only one Person told me I
must change caused by my heavy Tuning with NOS

Then we had this Threads in the German and the US Forums, in both Forums People were
asking if it would make sense to change.

OK, I bought the Material (6 Liters ATF needed) and after one Hour the Filter and the Oil was
changed.

Driving home felt so smooth, quick shifting without a rough noise. But when parking the Car
I was impressed: Shifting from "D" to "R" did not make any noise.

Last thing I have to say: I had much dirt in the old Fluid, the magnetics were full with metall+
+++ I can really advice you to do that Oilchange.

Bye, Geri

tranny and replaced the fluid and now it is stuck in 3rd or 4th gear. Tranny does not shift at all. Any
ideas as to what happened or what I may have done?

● Hi Folks, nice to read that this site is still on and has such a great responce for doing this oilchange.

Meanwhile I got rid of NOS and switched to PES G2 Supercharger, still with the same tranny - but with
it`s third "livetime" Oilfill. With it`s first sure it would have been already damaged. But my Tranny is
still working very fine even with much more power than stock. And finaly I bought and old Audi Cabrio
(Convertible) with nearly the same transmission. Useless to say that I have also changed ATF on this
car! Greets from Austria, Geri

● I'll tell you guys, just about when you have lost all your faith in the world and humanity from being

screwed right and left from everyone and AUDI DEALERS especially, along comes a guy like this and
writes such a detailed article on such a controversial subject and rescues all of us honest working poor
slobes from dispair and MUCHO BUCKS!!! needless to say. We all raise our glasses and tip our hats to
you. Thank you and may you have gods blessings for the rest of your life. OK enough of the mushy
stuff. Really great article. Anyway I have an 99 Audi A4 and noticed the rear trany seal leaking while I
was doing an oil change so I took it to the dealer to get the scoope on the fix. The mechanic said dont
worry about it it"s only a small leak. Im like WHAT! But who knows how much and how long its been
leaking and there is no dip stick to check it with. Im from the old days in case you havent noticed and I
like to Know How much fluid is in my trany. I had them replace the seal and top up the fluid. But Im
sure the mechanic was hoping I would listen to him and eventualy blow my trany and have to buy a new
one from them. What a way to drum up some buisness huh. STAY AWAY FROM AUDI DEALERS!!!!!!!!!
After that I was seriously considering selling my A4, which I love, just because I have to go to hell and
back just to make sure theres enough trany fluid in the box. Well after reading this article I think, I will
give it a shot and change my trany fluid since it has 135,000 on it and it to is starting to slip a bit here
and there. And If you want my advice on the fluid type issue, If your not 100% sure the other trany
fluids are ok to use, just go ahead and spend the extra $50 or so and buy the right stuff. What the heck
your saving so much already by doing it your self and when your laying there in bed at night thinking, "
man is my trany going to blow tomorrow, Ya know how your stomach drops out when you feel that first
slip, Man I Hope I used the right stuff" ??? You will know for sure you got the right fluid and you will
have one less headache. Even a $100 is better than $7000 for a new trany. And Its worth the peace of

mind. Anyway guys just my opinion. Well gona go buy some fluid and give the trany a trans.......

fussion. HA HA . Happy Motoring. And keep the faith.

● Hi

This will be a head scratcher...
I bought a Passat Automatic which had slight problem with Auto box. The problem was sometimes when
driving it goes through the gears pretty quick, other times hit hangs onto a gear and wont kick into
higher gear (and when it does you feel a thud). Instantly I thought ATF oil and filter change will do the
trick as clearly gearbox was sticking. So I got the Oil but bought wrong filter (only realised when I
opened the tray). Anyway I drained the oil and conventionally petrol washed the filter, dried it and put it

all back. Wow, did that car drive smooth.........(for a few days until filter clogged up and symptoms were

back).
I got a new correct filter and the right oil, excited, I changed the oil and filter and put the thing back

and topped up correctly.It drove sweet, with one thing though it was throwing the oil out from the top
breather, which I thought must have been the excess oil. A few days later, the gear changes (higher
gears) have become coarse, with a 'kick back' (Almost like the wheels lock up for a split moment). This
is the clutches playing up now.

My point is when I put in new oil it drives perfect, but as the gearbox works the oil - exposes to heat
and transmission load, the gearbox performance deteriorates.

My mechanics said it could be torque converter - my point, the issue never has been about transmission
or pulling power, it's alwatys been when the oil has been in the box a few days, part of it has been
chucked out, what is left is unusually being condensed (probably because it is experiencing unnecessary
heating/not enough cooling). Now the car kicks hard especially in higher gears.

Don USA - Aug 17, 2007 @ 12:15 pm

● I have a 2003 Passat w/ 1.8 Turbo and Tiptronic Trans. Last week I changed the timing belt, water

pump, tensioner, rollers, and all belts. With 102,000 miles this service was due, even though most of
the miles are highway miles. This week I decided to change the Transmission fluid. I used Mobile One
full synthetic for Mercon V transmissions. If you go on to the Mobile One web site, you will see that this
ATF is also rated for ZF transmissions in the Spec sheet. You will need to purchase 4 quarts ($6.88 ea at
Advance Auto Parts) and a 17 mm hex/allen wrench. I bought mine from NAPA for $9.09 plus tax. I also
put my rear wheels on steel ramps and used jack stands on the front--very important. This allows the
front wheels to rotate and this is necessary to put all four quarts back into the transmission when
refilling. I drained out over four quarts of very dark fluid..yes it was also overfilled from the factory (I
bought my Passat new). When I removed the large 17mm fill plug/nut..about a half quart of fluid came
out and then I pulled the drain plug and the rest came out. After letting it drain for about an hour, I put
the drain plug back in. I used a long funnel with a 3 foot section of plastic hose attached to it and on the
other side I used a metal 3/8" fuel line with a hook or bend in it to hook into the refile hole. I ran the
hose down from the back side of the firewall and hooked the funnel to the hood. About 2.5 quarts will
go in and then you will have to start the engine and shift the transmission into and out of drive for a few
minutes. The fluid will overflow after 2.5 qts, so have a pan to catch this. Leave the engine running and
the transmission in drive and pour the rest of the fluid into the funnel. It will take it all. I left my engine
running and crawled under the car to replace the 17mm plug. Using Steel ramps on the rear...I felt safe
doing this. The car runs fine and transmission shift like new again. You can do this!
