Volkswagen Transmission Flush
A transmission flush is ordinarily twice the price of a fluid change due to the amount of arduous time the service takes and the fact that the flush not only replaces the fluid in the pan but still removes excessive fluid from the cooler lines and other parts of your critical transmission.

Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is more bulky and thicker due to additives and other essential compounds necessary to lubricate the gearbox and other components. Manual transmissions have a higher friction environment due to the way gears are changed, thus the lubricant is greatly different.

Automatic transmissions generate considerable heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more ordinarily. If you don't change your Volkswagen transmission fluid, your transmission will have perilous broken metal shavings and other corrosive material spread throughout the vital parts of your Volkswagen.
