Well, still waiting for my Haynes manual .

Can anyone tell me where the filter on my 1994 300 TDi auto gearbox is located? A garage mechanic I know tells me that its inside, and the sump plate needs taking off to replace it.

Thanks! I was hoping not. I am going to ask them to quote me for a transmission oil change, but am loathe to pay £100+ for the oil filter change (I guessed that amount; am I far out?). So, the question is, would a transmission oil change be a good thing to do WITHOUT the filter change?
