Default ATF recommendations

I intend on performing a fluid service on my automatic transmission for my 1.8t. Aside from the Audi ATF, are there any other brands that are acceptable to use? I also need to know the capacity of the transmission so I know how many bottles to purchase?

Do you have a tip or DSG? Either way, give Blauparts.com a call to discuss. Both are pretty particular about their tranny fluid but Blau can supply you the correct stuff along with filters and gaskets you may need for the change.

BTW, auto tranny fluid changes on an Audi/VW are not typically simply drain and fill..you need to monitor the temp of the fluid so be sure things are spot on.

Its a tiptronic. I'll give them a call and see what they say. As far as changing the fluid is concerned, yes I understand that the new fluid must reach 40 degrees Celsius with a running engine to meet proper specs. Thanks for the reply.
