Where to add transmission oil on a 2003 Passat?

Does anyone know where the transmission fluid filler cap is located on a 2003 Passat?Where to add transmission oil on a 2003 Passat?
NO filler cap I own a VW and it is a closed system. Is the trans giving you a problem? I'd take it to a dealer for an oil change once in a while and let them look it over. They check things that the normal quick oil change people don't. They can tell you if you have a problem with leaks.Where to add transmission oil on a 2003 Passat?
There's a filler bung on the side of the pan. Oil must be added by a specialist. Unless there is an obvious leak, it won't be something you'll need to worry about. If the trans leaks, go to an independent Automatic Transmission Repair Specialist for advice. The VW Dealer will probably send it to them anyway!
I own Audi A4 (same power train as the Passat).





We do not have a dipstick and it is not ';topped'; off. It is sealed.

The factory originally said that the oil is good for the life of the tranny. Then after all the failure, they revised that the life of the tranny is 100K miles.





WHAT !!! Translation - change the oil before 100K miles. It cannot be dome by you.








Good Luck...
You do NOT add fluid do the transmission. What makes you think it needs it???? It probably doesn't even have a filler cap.
DON'T TRY TO CHANGE THE TRANS. OIL. LET A PROFESSIONAL DO IT. that is unless you are a mechaniac
