How to Replace the Transmission Fluid for Volkswagen Magotan?

[McKayden]

There are two methods for replacing the transmission fluid in a Magotan: 1. The traditional gravity method involves draining the fluid, similar to changing engine oil, by loosening the transmission drain plug to release the old fluid before adding new fluid. 2. The automatic transmission fluid can be replaced using a circulation machine, which generates pressure to dynamically exchange the fluid in the torque converter's lubrication and cooling lines. During the circulation process, the old and new fluids alternate much like a dialysis procedure. Through the viewing window, the transition from the old fluid's dark black color to the new fluid's red can be clearly observed until both fluids match in color. This process takes about 10 minutes, with the entire fluid replacement procedure lasting approximately 90 minutes.
