To add fluid to your Volkswagen Jetta's automatic transmission, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is running. Locate the Transmission Fluid dipstick, usually found near the back of the engine bay. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, then remove it again to check the fluid level. If needed, use a funnel to add the appropriate type of transmission fluid through the dipstick tube until it reaches the proper level. Always consult your owner's manual for specific fluid type and capacity.
OEM fluid is Pentosin Vw Automatic Transmission Fluid ATF1 and that is what I recommend you use.
I have a 99 jetta, and you are unable to check the transmission fluid on your own. You will have to take it to a service station where they will check it for you for free.
Manual or Automatic?
Sorry you have to be a chosen one to check the fluid level . Need the volkswagen tool. Uses the OB Connection with VAT software.
