Subject:Manual Transmission fluid fill
From:George Chapman

Hi, Volks;

I'm preparing to change the gear oil in my 91GL transaxle.
Is there a gravity fill method for refilling the transaxle
(while its in the car)?  It seems the fill hole is somewhat
encumbered by the shift mechanism on the side of the
transmission.     Or is this a pressure (pump) fill task?

Insight, tricks, don't do's welcome.

Thanks,
