Gergwheel1647545492 Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Anyone on here know about a special tool it requires to check the tranny fluid on a 1997 VW Jetta with a 1.8L motor in it? Dave or Derek, can you guys check it? This is a friends car and she lives on campus. No dipstick that I can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gergwheel1647545492 Posted September 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Yea its an auto trans, no leaks that I know of, it just hangs shifts, or won't shift when its supposed to and you have to completely let off the gas to get it to shift.
