CM found a simple cheap way to fill the transmission


Amazon.com: Sprayco R32 32 Oz Long Reach Plant Waterer: Home Improvement Amazon.com: Sprayco R32 32 Oz Long Reach Plant Waterer: Home Improvement
works on an A4
I'm thinking it should work on a manual
I just used a heat gun to make the tube bend the way I needed it so it would fit.
I doubt it would work with 90wt but dexron flows easily and it worked to perfection
found one at a local hardware store for 4 bucks

FYI : the tube goes to the bottom so you just squeeze it to make it work

Hey great idea!

I was going to change out my tranny fluid this year, possibly I can be the first to try it on a manual.

Now go play with your tools!

How much of the fluid were you able to get out of the bottle without a pump?

the tube goes to the bottom of the bottle
so
you just squeeze and it empties almost completely
