    Wheres The Best Place To Buy Auto Trans Fluid?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was wondering where the best place to buy Automatic Transmission fluid was. I have to do a fluid flush on my b5 a4 and my g/f's 2000 jetta. So i was wondering what was the best and cheapest place to buy it from since i know this stuff is expensive.

    Are there local/common stores that carry it other than the dealer, because i would think shipping on the fluid would out way any online savings, and is the OEM fluid the best choice, after searching i have gotten that impression.... but this is why I am asking you all, you know more than I do, thanks!

    VW dealership may charge a few bucks less, also, any auto fluid with the ATF logo should be good for the short run. In the long run, you gotta get it from the dealership. It's better to spend a few more bucks now then have to replace the tranny.

    I get royal purple MTF and love it....their ATF is probably just as good, you can get it shipped to your house by many online stores if you don't have a place by you that sells it

    seriously. dealer only, with the exception of getting the Audi approved auto trans fluid from an online site. never use any other ATF. ever.
