Drain plug is 17mm allen type, same as filler plug. Look to lowest part of transaxle, below differential.

Subject: [Vwdiesel] What transmission fluid?


81 Rabbit pickup with 86TD Jetta engine. Thanks for info from all those that 
posted. Update: I got the 17mm inside hex socket for tranny fill and found the 
bottom bolt to be regular socket 13mm. Problem is when I removed them only 2 
drops of fluid came out from the bottom! I wonder how long I have been driving 
without fluid. Transmission has not been complaining except for reverse gear 
slipping out sometimes. Can this fluid leak out over time due to a gasket leak? 
Hate to put in the MTL I got to see it all leak back out in short order.
