Tiptronic ATF tool- poor mans version

[Izzy]

For changing the ATF, I came across this homemade version of the $289 tool or to avoid the $300 charge by the dealer. The link address is

Here are other pictures. I plan on making one in a couple of weeks, will include a part list and BOM. The ATF should be between 90-104 degrees F when installed. A hot summer day with the container in the sun should do it (an inexpensive pool thermometer will do to verify).

Other pics if anyone else is interested:

Enjoy the DIY

I think you will need one with a screw on hose fitting for MY02 and newer Tips. Otherwise the ATF will squirt out.
