The 2004 Volkswagen Passat requires Dexron VI transmission fluid. The transmission is a vital component of the vehicle, but issues can occur over time. Problems like harsh shifts, jerking, stuck gears, shudders, and delayed shifts can arise. It's important to address any transmission fluid leaks promptly to prevent slipping. Regular transmission fluid replacement every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is necessary. Besides fluid changes, you may hear unpleasant sounds from the transmission when old fluid is present. A malfunctioning torque converter can also lead to headaches.
