Additional Notes

  • The Volkswagen Passat CC 357 manual transaxle holds 2.3 liters of fluid, and the "Initial fill" designation means the figure reflects the factory-filled amount at the time of assembly rather than a drain-and-refill service quantity.
  • Both the 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 model year entries for the 2.0 TFSI (147 kW) share an identical 2.3-liter initial fill capacity, indicating no change in transaxle fluid volume across those overlapping production periods.
  • The 40,000-mile interval listed for both configurations is a check interval under normal use conditions, meaning the fluid level is inspected at that mileage rather than replaced on a fixed drain schedule.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 40,000-mile check interval applies to both the 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 2.0 TFSI variants, with no separate severe-use interval specified in the available data for either entry.
