So this is my first car with an automatic transmission and I am about to change the fluid for the first time and just want to see if I am thinking about this the right way. I have a 2011 VW golf with the non-DSG auto in it and as far as VW is concerned the fluid is in there for life, I would like to make sure that the life is a long one. I know you cant get all the fluid out because some stays in the torque converter so I was thinking of doing a drain and fill twice. Drain and fill once then drive for a bit and dropping the pan to change the filter the second time. Is this the best way to go about doing it so I get most of the fluid changed?
Thanks.
Thanks.
