Hi, i have a 98 2l vw sharan auto which seems to have slow gear shifts and the revs keep up too long. also the fluid is not red as it should be, the fluid looks dirty. it has been suggested that the fluid level could be wrong, could anyone confirm what amount of fluid should be present in this box and also any indication as to why the slow gear shifts. any help would be appreciated on this matter as i really need this resolved as i dont want to cause any damage to the box if it`s not too bad just now. thanks in anticipation jim
 
The first thing to do with any auto gearbox fault is to have the fluid & filter changed. Have a good local independent garage tackle the job, it's a bit awkward as a DIY prospect without an inspection pit.
 
Hi, Drop the oil if you can & replace with new, " Im not sure where it is" but renew the filter if one is fitted, the oil should be Red. have you checked the oil level?
