Transmissions send engine power as variable torque into the drive wheels. Transmissions come in two fundamental styles, with all transmissions requiring internal fluid maintenance. Automatic and manual transmissions have different internal fluid requirements, but all transmissions require routine fluid maintenance. Automatic transmissions have hydraulic fluid that transfers energy among the components while keeping them lubricated. Manual transmissions have an internal gear oil that requires routine service.
This depends upon the model and transmission type. Transmission fluid exchange service is generally recommended by Volkswagen every 30,000 miles. You can find your model’s specific recommendation for transmission fluid service detailed in the owner’s manual. It is important to exchange transmission fluid if it loses integrity regardless of the miles.
The transmission fluid can lose integrity via thermal breakdown and leaking from worn parts. The warning signs range from minor to severe, with minor problems getting worse when left unattended. You should get an inspection quickly if you notice any of these warning signs that your transmission fluid has lost integrity:
Driving around with transmission fluid that has lost integrity is not the best idea if you enjoy a pleasant driving experience and damage-free transmission. Without effective transmission fluid, the internal parts will experience performance problems leading up to catastrophic damage caused without effective lubrication. Your best bet is to get the transmission fluid exchanged as recommended by a certified service department as we operate at Sunrise Volkswagen of Fort Pierce, FL.
