Hi All,
I have a 95 Golf III GL with automatic transmission (type 096 CNK). It seems ATF was never changed, so I am about to do it. But there is a problem: all manuals (Bentley et al) and "Volkswagen internal documents" I've got are ambiguous on what ATF to use. Basically what they say is: "Use either Dexron or VW ATF (G 052 162 A1/A2), but do not mix them!". Since the ATF change takes about a half of dry-fill (3 liters vs. 5.6 liters), I assume half of the old ATF going to stay, so I have to use the ATF kind which already there. Are there any reliable ways to identify what ATF (VW or Dexron) in a transmission now?
Thank you!
