I am not sure what you mean, but if it is why VAG com is needed to check the oil level then the exact temp of the oil is measured at which point the oil level is correct if is at the top of the spill tube. Come back if this is not what you are asking.

So that just measures the tranny fluid? Maybe the way you guys talk about it:duh:
Im new to VWs and autos so it probly sounds alot more complex than it is lol.
But thanks for the explanation.

If you are interested in reading further here's a thread by rebuild on an oil change for a T5.[very similar to the T4] Go to the link on brickyard.

If you intend keeping your T4 it's worth DIY. Not that hard & you can do it on a regular basis & save lots of $$$$. Remember draining once only changes part of the oil. It should at least be changed a second time soon after if the oil was particularly dirty & like a lot of trans. never been changed before.

Thanks for that:)
I always diy but you guys were starting to scare me off!
I,ll give it a good read then give it a go.
Btw where are all the build threads on t4s?

There aren't many on this forum, I did a writeup on CV joint replacement some time ago.

Thanks heaps for the help:)
