Today's Topics:   1. 2004 A6 3.0 Quattro-automatic transmission issues 

Our 1999 2.8 A6 Avant has 200K on the original tranny.
A tad fragile today, but serviced us well.

There is a "tool" which seems to be a pitcher to drain fluid into the ZF.

Procedure seemed a bit complex: 
Trans temp needed to be in a specific range, the drained out fluid was replaced (with new) back in and measured

before the operating temp got too high.

I watched it, but never did a write up for quattro123.com

8 year old car for a song?  I'd be tempted!
