Multitronic Oil Change - (a bit of a faff...!)

I finally got hold of an oil service socket for the Audi, which means I can now change the gearbox oil. No idea when it was last changed, so let's see what condition it's in! We haven't had any problem with the gearbox - this is just regular maintenance.
Changing the multitronic oil is a bit of a pain - there's no filler from the engine bay - it all has to take place underneath the car - what a faff! So up it goes again on the jack stands and I squeeze back into my overalls... By the way - I did top up the level properly with the engine running, I just did it off camera. The final level check/top-up is always done with the engine running.

The original one what is fitted near the radiator on the right side seen from the driving position should be cut off through the aluminum line’s . This one was also fitted in the other A6. And the additive Polytron MTC was also added to the oil inside the multitronic and differential. This product is really a big benefit for the longer life of the multitronic.

I have had my gearbox oil changed at 80k miles (unsure if it got done at 40k by previous owner) and about to have it done again. I will keep doing it every 40k miles as Audi recommends. But I shall look at these extra recommendations you suggest. I can see the engine lasting a long time and everything else. The one thing that will fail and probably write the car off would be the multitronic if it fails. Would maybe not be worth fixing. So I will look after it as I still love the car and have no desire for a new one.

It seems based on the number of Multi CVT failures on the Audi A6 B6 you're suspicions on Long Life oil aren't entirely unfounded (esp as Audi themselves suggest the 60km oil change).

Interesting that you suggest only 5.5l is required (does make a cost difference)

Hi When you first remove the plug for the fill and level drain, a lot of fluid came out and you said this was great, or correct. So, if the engine was cold, and the fluid not expanded, shouldn't no fluid come out when the engine is cold?

@christianp9128 2 жыл бұрын

Reason for this happening is because the fluid is sitting at the bottom of the transmission and pan. Level should be above the drain tube. Once the transmission starts and circulates the fluid trough the gears and rest of the transmission, the level should be slightly below the fill tube. The reason you need the proper temperature of the fluid is due to the termal properties of the fluid. You want to have just the right amount of fluid in there until it starts running out trough the plug. Remember yiu always check transmission fluid on vehicles with the car running always for this reason.

Are you sure you have a cvt? I don’t recall any A3 8Ps having them.

An oil change might help a lot, a flush would be better. (Or 2-3 oil changes with short drives in between!).

This kind of gearbox does not allow for "normal" filling. The fluid has to be pumped back in through the sump plug as shown.

All Audi gearbox oil changes are similar, but check online for the correct oil specifications and procedures. The earlier cvt boxes were slightly different.

Surely the first plug you took out was the drain as that much shouldn’t come out when you fill it and it’s “full”?

Did you forget to torque the gearbox filler plugs and give the torque settings

Gartshore's Garage thanks a lot for this video, i just subscribed to your channel... Born in France, studied in US, UK and Germany and now living in the madness of South Africa driving a stunning A4 B8 2010... I cannot find a reliable place to change the multitronic GB oil.. Any tips about the software you used? Where to purchase the pump and more importantly, if it is the same access plugs for an A4 B8 from 2010? Tnx for your video 👍🏻

Hi, thanks for subscribing! The software is VCDS used via a Ross Tech interface. It’s not cheap, but it’s basically the same system used by most professionals. As for getting the oil changed - there are bound to be a few good techs around - check out your local forums! I bought my pump on eBay, there are plenty on offer around the world. As for the plugs on your gearbox - you’ll have to get down there and have a look! Most were the 01J model. Good luck!

Hey, I have a 3.2 audi tt. Wanted to oil drain the auto dsg by myself. But after watching this clip, I guess i'll only do the engine and the haldex. Don't even know were to get the M24 XZN tool.

It is not any worse than changing any other sealed transmission fluid. Just get the correct fluid and don't be cheap about that then you should be fine. The DSG MUST be done every 40,000 miles or sooner. There is a filter up top under the battery tray. There are some vids on doing this too.

Yep - Charles is right - it can be done by yourself quite easily - just follow the instructions and buy good quality oil. Liqui Moly is very good and can always be recommended if it's available in your area. Just make sure it's the right specification for your gearbox.

@@GartshoresGarage I have a 09G but I have also considered using Liqui Moly ATF in that too. That would be Top Tec 1800 for 2nd gen 09G. Top Tech 1200 for 1st gen.

Was there not a oil filter to change in the gearbox like the S4?

@lynxstarautomotive208 3 жыл бұрын

Multi-tronic is VW’s name for the CVT. The CVT uses an internal screen (like some Hondas) which is only accessible by dropping the unit and cracking it open. There is a filter inline on the cooler line, but not everyone bothers to change it. The official repair info only calls for a drain and refill.

Good evening, congratulations on the video. My Audi is the A4 1.8 T gasoline model year 2005, automatic transmission (CVT). Is this car you are exchanging the same model as mine? If it's not the same as my car, can you recommend a video that teaches how to change the oil. Thank you in advance, thank you very much.

@GartshoresGarage 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching. While the procedure would normally be the same for most VW/Audi CVT gearboxes, please check the manufacturer specifications, especially regarding the correct oil. Things change over the years and it's always important to check the exact specifications and techniques for your own vehicle. If you're doing it yourself and have any questions, always ask a professional - I'm just an amateur working on my own private vehicles!

Hi, Really appreciated your job in this video. I am having 2013 a4 1.8t cvt. I am only having one plug in the transmission. I can’t find another as your video shows. Can you please help me. Thanks

@GartshoresGarage 4 жыл бұрын

I've checked, and all CVTs seem to have 2 plugs - one to drain and one to fill... Strange!

@brijendrasinhgohil4211 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for getting back to me with my query. I have recheck for plugs but there is only one plug on my cvt.
