Hello all,

I wanto to change my gearbox oil because I find that it's not very
smooth when gear shift. My Audi is a 96 A4 1.8T 5-speed auto-gearbox
one (WITHOUT +/-) model. Do you know the specification of gearbox oil
that I use?

thanks,

Ben

any of these cars as the quattro system is "sealed for the life of the
car"    I remain skeptical.


Hmmm,  I was looking in the Chilton's book on this--as it's obvious I
need to do it myself.   I don't recall them specifying a VAG tool.

Re: Gearbox oil specificationo

Your transmission will have either a black or green transmission ID tag that
will indicate which fluid to use.....cost is $250 to $300 US for either the
Shell or the Esso only available from ZF distributors and dealers......see
