Audi VW Manual Transmission Fluid - Genuine VW Audi G070726A2

Product Information

Manual transmission fluid is a specialized lubricant used in a manual gearbox to facilitate smooth gear shifting by reducing friction between the moving parts; when it fails, common symptoms include difficulty shifting gears, gear slipping, grinding noises, rough shifting, fluid leaks, and a burning smell, often indicating excessive wear or contamination within the transmission.

• Difficult shifting: Gears may feel hard to engage or require excessive force to shift
• Gear slipping: The engine RPMs increase without the car accelerating properly, indicating the gears are not fully engaging
• Grinding noises: A grinding sound when shifting gears, often a sign of excessive wear on gear teeth

About Genuine VW Audi

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VAG to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VAG” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VAG, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VAG Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VAG are not necessarily manufactured by VAG. No cause for concern, as VAG designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VAG for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VAG parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VAG logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
