Pentosin 1058206 ATF 1 Synthetic AutomotiveTransmission Fluid for Select Audi, BMW, Ford, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Volkswagen + More; 5 Liter

Although we don't think about it very much, it's always in the back of our minds sort of worrying about it until something goes wrong with it, then we spring into action! My 2008 Audi A4 B7 2 comes equipped with the following features With 118K miles on the car, there was no knowledge as to whether the fluid had ever been changed and the car downshifted rapidly into fifth before it went out of gear after slowing down. That was all there was to It comes with a 5L jug and a Beck Arnley filter and gasket kit. The fluid was drained from the chamber in about 4 3/4 liters. After seeing that it looked like it might be clogged and sucking hard), I used a 12V pump I bought here for $16 to fill the pan. I ran it up again and it took another 2L, so I'd say this 5L jug is full. After going through all gears, I topped it off with a tranny temp of about 40C and waited until it overflowed the fill hole in accordance with YouTube instructions. We gave it a test drive and we were amazed! There was no way I could have predicted how much my tranny could improve. Apart from being smoother in all gears, the downshift to 5th became smooth again and the biggest difference is that it now selects the correct gear effortlessly under all conditions, especially when going slowly and I just peg it, the downshift selects the right gear for faster acceleration. It used to not be able to downshift enough to get really going. A few hiccups are to be expected at first. I put this down to the new fluid cleaning the dirt from the tray and temporarily clogging the pathway, but it went away after maybe 20 miles. This amber-colored beer is becoming a favorite of mine- just bought another jug It was suggested at an Audi blog to drain and refill after another 500 miles of colored fluid. Changing the filter and adding new fluid cleans the transmission, but leaves a lot of particles in the new fluid mix since the transmission contains 9 liters and you can only replace 5 liters at the time. After 500 miles, after this cleaning action, the fluid becomes dirty again. Once the 5L has been dumped a second time and the second 5L jug has been added, the mix will once again be cleaner, but the tranny will stay cleaner since it was already cleaned by car wash/filter/fluid and 500 miles of driving. All in all, I've found it to be the best fluid for my Audi, many VWs, and BMWs alike. Overall, I am extremely happy with the smooth shifting, accurate gear selection, nicer idle, and I think I even achieved an additional 1 after all that. This means that after the first service you will gain 5 MPG. My advice is to service it faster rather than later and you will save yourself a lot of money over having the dealer tell you that it never needs to be serviced. Instead, the dealership wants to charge you exactly as much to change the tranny as your car is worth, I guess just as much if not more! Also, before draining the fluid, make sure your car is at the perfect level before starting! You can check your battery top by leveling it a bit. Likewise, if the tranny is flat front to rear as well as side to side, it is level. It has been a pleasure doing business with you!.

When I did the transmission service on our Eurovan '03 at 40k miles, I used this fluid in the 5 liter container. It takes approximately 3 seconds to shift the Eurovan 01P transmission. A total of 5 liters needs to be refilled. To ensure that you get the maximum amount of fluid, you'll want to do the final fill and level with your engine running and at full operating temperature. You may need to add one or more liters of water before it is at a proper As a result, you may have some extra fluid to use next time, or, as another reviewer mentioned, the fluid also functions as power steering fluid for when you need to I'm sure you'll agree that Harbor Freight Tools makes a great fluid transfer pump for around $10. using that pump straight from the oil jug was a great way to refill my transmission. It should be noted that the jug is graduated by half liters, so you know how much to add back into it. The following tips are top tips You may want to replace all the oil if you've dropped the pan to replace the fluid Trans fluid leaks from the gear box can be prevented with a set of ring seals!.

Here's the place to go if you own an Audi. It was a great product that I used just now. It is the best way to keep your Audi running smoothly. made a mistake in the beginning by listening to the dealership tell me that my transmission was sealed, and there was no need to replace the fluid. I failed at 100k when my transmission failed. Since then, I've had the transmission replaced and changed the fluid The product was delivered to my doorstep on Wednesday after I ordered it on Monday. No leaks were found in the box, and there was no misrepresentation of the product as some users have complained. There is no doubt that I will purchase this product again soon.

The replacement fluid was excellent and I had no complaints about it. However, I did have one complaint about how it was delivered. The item was packaged in a box that was nearly as large as the item and the box was sideways and leaked.

The following purchase was made Pentosin ATF I've been charged $11 for a transmission fluid change in my 2004 Jaguar XJ8. The second fluid change was carried out, and as with the first I used the Pentosin, which meets the specification set I'm very happy with this.

The fluid upgrade on a BMW with a GM transmission is great for a 100K+ There was a problem with my 2004 BMW 330ci convertible's fluid and filter which needed to be changed. The fluid was very effective and did the job The only problem is that you need about 7 liters of transmission fluid, which means buying 2 more liters will cost you as much as buying the 5 liter container.

The shift quality was fine for the first 50,000 miles (dropped the pan and replaced the filter). But as the engine reached 60,000 miles, the shift quality started to deteriorate I had the shop do a drain and refill and the consistency was restored. On a 2016 VW Tiguan 4Motion, this is the driver's display.

This is perfect for the 530i I just drained and filled it. There is a tendency for most people not to change their trans fluid on their BMW. Therefore, if you just purchased a used BMW or are not sure when the last oil change occurred, you should drain the system and fill it with fresh fuel. It's also a good idea to replace the gasket and the filter. Follow that up with a flush a few months later. This is because if you flush the entire system with clean new fluid and your fluids have never been changed, it could cause shock to the trans. In fact, it could worsen the situation. As for lubricating and cleaning everything inside your trans, even if you don't have slipping, you ought to use a bottle of Lucas stop slip. Upon noticing the difference, you will be pleasantly surprised. This is a 5-star rating!.
