I recently priced the VAS 6262 DSG OEM fill tool for refilling the DSG transmission and it now costs around $200. :mad0259:
Yes, there is the home made fix that was created by Deviantspeed:

That solution is a bit too much DIY for me. My goal is to build a fluid filler that is priced as close to the Deviantspeed solution as possible without having to to do the whole drilling, thread tapping and JB weld routine.
My total cost was about $80.
First is the DSG fill adapter which I found at AST tools for about $37 + shipping. You can get it here:

Next buy a standard 1 gallon pressurized sprayer like so from any home improvement center:
Next obtain about 3 feet of clear hose, cut off the nozzle tip from the sprayer, attach clear hose and adapter.
Pentosin FFL-2 was used:
Filter and fluid kit:

And finally the DSG service procedure:

Total service time was about one hour if you take it slow. :thumbsup:
Cliff Notes:
- Home made DSG fill tool ~ $80
- Filter and fluid kit ~ $140
- Knowing you did the service yourself. "Priceless"
