If my advice is not applicable, then the conventional auto is a bit dearer to service.
It does have a filter in the pan, and needs 4L of oil at $80/l (from memory). You'll still need the correct filling tool, but not the same one as the DSG.'07 Transporter 1.9 TDI

Thanks.
Any idea where I can buy the filling tools from? I assume the fluid is genuine only.Comment

There are cheaper alternatives that are approved, but are tricky to get hold of if you're not a trade customer.
I bought my filling tools online, from eBay.'07 Transporter 1.9 TDI

There are also a number of guides for refilling without the tools.Originally posted by Passat my07 View Post
basically, drain the oil, measure what came out & add that back through the top

They are self-levelling, meaning you need to put more in than required, and drain the excess.
And filling through the top is a time-consuming ordeal.'07 Transporter 1.9 TDI
