Audi A6 C6 Automatic Tiptronic Gearbox Oil Change Question

[rowdy-999]

@rowdy-roddy piper Great wrestler....remember him?...died recently I think...

Not into wrestling, but my name comes from the Clint Eastwood character.

Take a short holiday to Wales then did you crash?? hahahaha

In one....

@rowdy.....yes agreed except in the mid 80's I wasn't quite old enough to appreciate the shiteness of WWF wrestling, I soon realised that it was crap though, right around the same time I grew hair on my balls....

Crasher are you back to civilisation yet? It would be FAB to see those photo bucket pics re tranny change.....ooops that sounded a bit wrong!!! Hahaha.... and so far no takers on how I can tell if my tranny has had the software update/oil change without the super wizzy vcds gizmo?..

oh yeah....slightly off topic but would a subframe mount be the same thing as a console? Apparently my rear console has some play in it, and one of my 4 front subframe mounts is buggered so I thought perhaps they're the same thing???

and regarding that level set tube you were talking about Crasher, is that something already in the transmission or would I need to get one? I thought you just filled it till it poured out!!

[Crasher]

Just doing another Q7 trans fluid change

[Quattro-Charlie]

Excellentay ..

would be be very helpful for a few close pics thanks Crash. And an answer to my query about telling if the update has been done without vcds. Chearrss!

[Crasher]

errr, Done and gone. What was the other question?

[Quattro-Charlie]

Yeah..haha....just look at my earlier posts. I'll start a new thread on it and maybe find someone interested in helping..

Interesting thread I have a 2008 A6 quattro with a sealed gearbox with 53k I was looking to get the GB oil changed by Audi as I have heard a lot of different issues with using non Audi dealers, any advice out there!! PS not happy with the headlights either any recommended upgrades going?

Thanks

[Crasher]

It isn't sealed, not by any means. If Audi won't do it, find an independent VAG specialist and ask them to use the Meyle filter kit.

Can anyone point to (ebay?) a proper service kit with filter, gasket etc for A6 C6 with the the 6 speed auto? (I assume it is the ZF6HP19A)

By the way, what is the correct filter layout? Some shops list this as the proper filter: http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/-rAAAO...GF/s-l1600.jpg

But other places list a filter looking like this : http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/1NcAAO...D-/s-l1600.jpg
