– Unscrew inspection plug -arrow-.
Caution
Caution
– Screw adapter for oil filling - VAS 6262 A- into inspection plug
opening hand-tight.
– Hold bottle with adapter for oil filling - VAS 6262 A- as high as
possible over the dual clutch gearbox, and allow the gear oil
to flow into the dual clutch gearbox.
– To check, if the dual clutch gearbox has been filled sufficiently,
disconnect the quick-release coupling on adapter for oil filling
- VAS 6262 A- at regular intervals, and seal the hose with your
finger or a clean plug.
• The accumulated gear oil flows out of the overflow pipe
-arrow 2-.
• Irrespective of the gear oil level there is always a slight amount
of gear oil which escapes.
• If some gear oil still escapes at a gear oil temperature of be‐
tween 35 and 45°C (caused by the increasing temperature),
the gear oil level is OK.
• Irrespective of the gear oil level a small gush of oil escapes
from the overflow pipe every 30 seconds due to the cooling oil
pulses for supplying the multi-clutch. This is not relevant for
determining the gear oil level.
• Do not re-use gear oil which has escaped.
• Check the gear oil temperature on the vehicle diagnostic test‐
er , while filling gear oil. If 45°C are exceeded, stop filling gear
oil, and allow the gearbox to cool down.
– If the gear oil level is OK, perform the required measures for
completing the work sequence ⇒ page 171 .
Concluding measures
• Renew seal -arrow- for inspection plug.
– Unscrew adapter for oil filling - VAS 6262 A- from gearbox.
– Tighten overflow pipe.
Caution
– Place used oil collection and extraction unit - VAS 6622A- be‐
