Hi all, I have drained the trans fluid from my 300Tdi and when I have come to refil it, I can't get a level.
At first I thought I had over filled it because the fluid was well up the dipstick, so I let some out via the dipstick lower fitting. Then I started and it all disappeared, so I put some more in and it is either well up the dipstick or nonexistent???
I know it is to be checked at idle when cold and after it has been cycled through the years but I can't make head nor tail of it.
What level if any do you have on the dipstick before start? Or should I just rain it again and start with a measured 4.5 litres?
