Call your local VW dealer who will tell you there is no need to change the fluid as it is a lifetime fluid. But be persistent and ask what fluid to use. I would tell you what I think it uses but as VW uses 2 different fluid based on if it is Triptonic or not, I will not. I might be wrong and I cannot take that chance. To change the fluid look at the link I will post. it is not as easy as you may think on your VW.
