How to Replace the Gearbox Oil in an Audi A3?

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Transmission fluid

To replace the gearbox oil in an Audi A3, access the underside of the engine compartment, locate the gearbox and its oil drain plug. Unscrew this plug and position a container underneath to collect all the used oil. Once the oil has completely drained, top up through the appropriate filler cap located on the side of the gearbox: insert a tube into the hole and pour oil from the other end where a funnel will be placed. After topping up, close the plug.
