Transmission fluid change capacity

[D5RSR]

Just bought this kit with 6l of fluid

After watching and reading a few DIY guides they mention about 8.5l will be needed.

Can anyone confirm before I start draining it?

Thanks.

It's way more than 6L. Mine took over 8L before it started overflowing from the fill hole. Full capacity is 8.75 Quarts, so over 9L.

Yes that's what I've been reading, I'll get onto Opieoils.co.uk as see what they say. This kit is listed for my car.

Thanks.

Fluid

Fluid changed, what a messy job. I've done the initial fill with just over 4l, started the car in P and got another 3.5l in. I just need to top it up and get it to 40c that's tomorrows job now.

I used a garden pressure sprayer, was very slow but it worked ok.
I had plenty of room to work.
