FAQs
What specific transmissions is this kit designed for?
This kit is primarily designed for VW Group dual-clutch transmissions, specifically OCK and OB5 types found in Audi and VW vehicles.
Can the pump be used for fluids other than transmission oil?
Yes, the hand pump can be used independently for transferring other non-corrosive automotive fluids like engine oil or differential fluid.
How do I clean the pump after use?
After each use, flush the pump and hoses with a suitable cleaning solvent compatible with the pump's materials, then wipe dry.
What does 'Equivalent to OEM VAS6617' mean?
It means the kit performs the same function and meets the same standards as the original equipment manufacturer's tool, VAS6617 and VAS6617/12.
Does the kit include all the necessary adaptors for all VW Group dual-clutch transmissions?
The kit includes 7 transmission adaptors and specific fittings for OCK and OB5 dual-clutch transmissions. While comprehensive for many common applications, it's always best to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle model.
How accurate is the volume reading on the pump?
The built-in volume reader allows for precise measurement of the oil being transferred, helping to prevent over or underfilling.
Troubleshooting
Pump not drawing fluid
Ensure the intake hose is fully submerged in the fluid and the connection to the pump is secure. Check for any kinks or blockages in the intake hose.
Fluid leaking from adaptor connection
Verify that the correct adaptor is being used and is securely fitted to the transmission port. Ensure the quick-fit connector is properly engaged and the O-ring/seal is intact.
Volume reader inaccurate
Ensure the pump reservoir is properly filled and the pump is operated with a consistent stroke. Clean the volume reader mechanism if it appears obstructed.
Difficulty attaching adaptor
Confirm you are using the correct adaptor for the specific transmission model. Clean the transmission fill port of any debris that might impede attachment.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Simplifies a complex and messy automotive task.
- Provides accurate measurement of fluid transfer.
- Includes specialized adaptors for specific VW Group transmissions.
- Durable construction with brass fittings.
- Versatile pump can be used for other fluid transfer needs.
Cons
- Primarily designed for VW Group transmissions, limiting broader application without additional adaptors.
- Requires manual pumping, which can be time-consuming for very large volumes.
- Initial cost may be higher than basic, non-specialized pumps.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Select the appropriate transmission adaptor for your specific VW Group transmission (e.g., OCK or OB5 dual-clutch).
- Attach the chosen adaptor to the transmission fill port.
- Connect the hand pump's hose to the adaptor.
- If using angled pipes for easier access, attach them between the pump hose and the adaptor.
- Load the transmission fluid into the pump's reservoir.
- Ensure the volume reader is set to zero before starting.
Compatibility:
- Primarily designed for VW Group transmissions, including Audi and VW models with OCK and OB5 dual-clutch gearboxes.
- The pump itself is suitable for general fluid transfer of non-corrosive automotive fluids.
Care:
- After each use, thoroughly flush the pump and hoses with a suitable cleaning solvent (e.g., brake cleaner or a mild degreaser) to remove old oil residue. Ensure the solvent is compatible with the pump's materials.
- Wipe dry all components, especially the adaptors and the pump body.
- Store the kit in its original case or a clean, dry environment to prevent contamination and damage to the adaptors.
