Have a look under the trans pan. There are two hex bolts. One is 17mm (that's for filling), the other is 8mm (that's for draining). Fill using an oil pump ($5 from SuperCheap) until the oil flows out. Then start the engine (which will drop the level as the trans takes up oil into valve body) and continue filling until it runs out again. Leave engine running, jump in car and change between each gear holding each gear for 3 seconds (This allows the galleries to fill). Get under and fill again until oil drips out. Lock down the 17mm filler bolt and turn engine off. 2-3 days later, check the level again.

How do you add fluid to auto tranny on 2001 passat?
If it has a transmission dip stick for checking the fluid level, you add fluid at the same location. If there is no way to actually check the level, it may have a sealed for life transmission. You need an owner's manual or call a VW dealer.

I have a 2000 passat 2.8 v6 wagon, and have owned a 1999 passat 2.8 v6 sedan. I have been told by VW service departments that the AUTO trans units are SEALED so you cannot add fluid! Not sure about manual trans.
