The 1999 VW Jetta comes with a sealed transmission making it inmpossible to check the fluid. The dealership charges a ridiculous $400 just for Transmission Fluid change... There are a few sources that say how to check the fluid by removing the drain plug, but it`s a little intimidating(for me at least). By the way, VW strongly advises to use only their trans fluid which costs about $26 bucks a quart, abouts. Yeah, a big scam on VW`s part. Good luck! olinoo@msn.com

How do you change transmission fluid and replace filter in vw jetta 1999?

I have a 1996 VW dl jetta and to add the transmission fluid is on the right front side of the car underneath by the tire. My husband had to put it in that way. But he said he will never go through that again. To add tranny fluid you have to go to the garage. Because they have to pump the fluid in the tranny. There is no place to check the tranny fluid like a reg. car? Crazy but true.
