Volkswagen Transmission Fluid Exchange in Rockaway, NJ

Did you know that most auto manufacturers suggest getting your transmission fluid changed out every 30,000 to 100,000 miles? If you didn't, you're not alone. Many drivers are surprised to learn that their transmission fluid needs to be exchanged after they are already experiencing issues shifting. Our team at Trend Motors Volkswagen encourages all local drivers to get a transmission fluid exchange in Rockaway or schedule a transmission maintenance check regularly to prevent these problems. Naturally, we understand you may have questions, and we're here to answer!

What Happens if I Wait too Long to Get a Volkswagen Transmission Fluid Exchange?

Transmission fluid lubricates the parts of your transmission as well as keeps it cool during gear shifts. However, it breaks down naturally over time and must eventually be replaced. Degradation of the transmission fluid makes it more difficult for gear shifts to happen smoothly, and so you may experience difficulties accelerating or decelerating with the old fluid. Leave it unchanged too long, and the transmission itself may even break down and result in more extensive (and costly) damage.

How Do I Know When to Change the Transmission Fluid?

It's always a good idea to get at least a transmission inspection done at least every 10,000 miles. For Volkswagen transmissions, a fluid exchange is recommended every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. People who drive frequently and around the city with frequent stops in traffic may want to get their transmission checked sooner, while less frequent drivers on steadier routes can wait a little longer. Nevertheless, a Volkswagen transmission fluid exchange may be overdue if you experience any of the following signs:

  • Rough shifts or other difficulty shifting
  • Burning smells when you go to shift
  • Failure to stay in gear
  • Squealing or grinding noises, especially when you shift
  • Leaking transmission fluid (most noticeable when parked)


Is There a Difference Between a Volkswagen Transmission Fluid Exchange and a Transmission Flush?

In short, yes, there is. If you go into a mechanic asking for a transmission fluid exchange or "change," only some of the fluid may be topped off or leaked out and replaced. Meanwhile, a flush means all of the old fluid is removed and replaced. While this can benefit many vehicles, others may not be able to handle a full flush and, therefore, will be better off with just a change/exchange. Experienced and certified Volkswagen mechanics (like the experts at Trend Motors Volkswagen) will discuss which option is better for your vehicle when you come in for a Volkswagen transmission fluid exchange.
