Additional Notes

  • The Volkswagen Eurovan 7D automatic transaxle carries an initial fill capacity of 5.35 liters, which reflects the total fluid volume required when the unit is dry, such as after a full overhaul or replacement.
  • The refill capacity of 3.5 liters applies to a drain-and-fill service, where residual fluid remains in the torque converter and valve body after draining the pan alone.
  • Both the 2.8 V6 24V (150 kW) covering model years 2000-2004 and the 2.8 VR6 (103 kW) covering model years 1999-2000 share identical initial fill and refill capacities of 5.35 liters and 3.5 liters respectively, despite being distinct engine variants.
  • The specified change interval for the automatic transaxle fluid is 40,000 miles under normal use conditions, applying equally to both the 2.8 V6 24V and the 2.8 VR6 configurations.
  • The gap between the 5.35-liter initial fill and the 3.5-liter refill amounts to 1.85 liters, representing the volume that remains trapped in the transmission circuit during a standard service drain.
