Best Answer

The manual transmission on a Jetta does not have a traditional dipstick. The fill plug is located on the left side near the front. If the oil reaches the bottom of the filler plug hole, the oil level is correct.

Do you check tranny fluid in gear or not on 2001 ZX2?

You almost never check the A/T fluid with the transmission in gear. Check your owner's manual or look on the dipstick. If you have no owner's manual or it is not listed on the dip stick, call your local Ford dealer. Overfilling the transmission is a sure way to cause damage. You must check the fluid the correct way.
