Full details
This Sealey VS70010 Transmission Oil Gravity Filler System is designed for automotive technicians and DIY enthusiasts needing a clean and controlled method for filling VAG DSG transmissions. Its key benefit is the prevention of spills and precise fluid delivery, ensuring correct fill levels. A potential caveat is its specialized nature, primarily intended for VAG DSG transmissions, requiring specific adaptors for other applications. The system features a large 1.5L tank with a measurement scale, a flow regulation valve for controlled dispensing, and hands-free functionality via a support hook.

FAQs
What types of transmissions is this filler system compatible with?
The Sealey VS70010 is specifically designed for VAG DSG transmissions. It comes with adaptors for common VAG fill ports.
Can I use this system for other types of transmissions?
While the system's core function is gravity fluid transfer, you may need to source alternative adaptors if your transmission does not use the included M24 x 1.5mm or M22 x 1.5mm fittings.
How do I ensure accurate fluid filling?
The system features a large 1.5L filling tank with a clear measurement scale. Fill the tank to the desired level indicated on the scale before dispensing the fluid.
What is the purpose of the support hook?
The support hook allows for hands-free operation, enabling you to secure the filler system in place while you focus on controlling the fluid flow.
How long is the hose, and is it flexible?
The hose is 2 meters in length and is designed to be flexible for ease of use and positioning.
What should I do after using the oil filler system?
After use, empty any remaining fluid from the tank, clean the tank and hose with a suitable cleaner, and allow all components to dry before storing.
Does this system require a pump?
No, this is a gravity-fed system. It relies on the principle of gravity for fluid transfer, meaning the tank needs to be positioned higher than the fill port.
Troubleshooting
No fluid flow from the hose.
Ensure the flow regulation valve is fully open. Check that the tank is positioned higher than the fill port for gravity feed. Verify that the adaptors and hose are securely connected and that there are no kinks in the hose.
Leaking at the connection point.
Ensure the correct adaptor is being used for the transmission fill port. Check that the adaptor is securely tightened onto the fill port and the hose connection is firm. Inspect the adaptor and hose for any damage.
Fluid delivery is too fast or too slow.
Adjust the flow regulation valve to control the speed of fluid delivery. For slower flow, partially close the valve. For faster flow, open it further, but always maintain control to prevent spills.
Tank measurement scale is unclear.
Clean the exterior of the tank with a damp cloth. Ensure adequate lighting when reading the measurement scale.
