When you mention shift through all the gears, are you talking about R, D, N or actually putting it in D and going through 1-7? I don’t have a lift, only ramps and my driveway has a slight slope so I’m not sure how safe it is to invest in a lift and utilizing it there. Thanks for the informative video!
Hi great vid. looking to get a Macan but heard about the transmission oil leak problems. will this solve it. and should the oil leak problem put me off the purchase? Thanks
Oil leak problems on the Porsche Macan was related to the S and the GTS models. It was an oil leak from the timing cover. Porsche covered the repairs under warranty but I don't know if it was a recall or an as needed repair.
You didn't mention what year and model vehicle you are working on. With your vehicle info handy, give The Pelican Parts parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799. They can figure out what part or repair kit you need.
I am not sure what the repair will cost in your area. Call a few shops and ask for a quote. It is also a good idea to have them confirm what the issue is.
Great points. Having already done this myself, there were still a few things there that I didn't know or think of.
Thanks for the feedback. Glad we could help.
Thanks, service data is always lacking.
Glad to help
Excellent video, very informative explaining step by step. Thank You! I will buy my filters and fluids from Pelican when the time comes.
Thank you!

All the gears, including manual shifts.
Macan is great
It is.
Should l wait until the trans fluid stops spill out after it reaches 40 degrees. Would it be a problem if I did that ? Thx!
What is the year and model of vehicle are you working on? I can see if I have that info.
It's a 2019 base model, thx!

I haven't heard of chronic leaks. It depends on where the leak is from. If from the filter, then yes.

Is this the same for the panamer
No, it will be different.
Looking to do this, is there a difference between FFL-4 and ATF transmission fluid - or can you use either?
