DSG Fluid Change—B9 A4 (help)

[Charlotte.:R]

Changing the DSG fluid on wifeys 2018 A4, and the pump I got, despite claiming to have a Audi/VW DSG adapter, absolutely doesn’t fit.

Alternatives to getting fluid in it?

Pour it in the filter hole(if it's on the top)... takes a while...

The A4 doesn’t have an external filter

Thanks! June 15th ship date. Wifey would have been pissed if her car was out of commission that long.

I drilled out the old plug and rigged it to my hand pump.

Rig that sucka!!!

You lose points for not using a zip tie though.

Gotta use zip ties.

I know you already rigged it up, but this shows as next-day delivery for me and it's the same "MFG Part Number" as the ECS link: https://www.amazon.com/CTA-Tools-7430-Filler-Adapter/dp/B094PWR4F8

ECS sucks.

Worry not, the 50K maintenance was not completed without zip ties. One was used in place of one of those little locking tabs on the coil pack connector that broke when I looked at if funny doing the spark plugs.

Thank goodness it rained all weekend and wifey was happy being stuck at home, although pointing out this wouldn't have been an issue if she learned how to drive manual was probably not my smartest decision.
