I assume that you have manual transmission with one drain and one fill?

I just had my 93-100S transaxel drained and refilled with Audi Synthetic
gear lubs.
G-50, I believe.....Expen$$ive $tuff, too.

Anyway, the mechanic used a large squirt can to fill. Took a while but he
hand-pumped in about 2 and a half quarts of gear lube.

Let me repeat what has been said several times on this list: Make sure you
can remove the fill plug BEFORE you drain the transmission.
