Run the car in park with the 5mm hex plug removed from the bottom of transmission pan. If there is fluid coming out while running (make sure car is up to operating temp), then it is full. If not, remove the red cap from the transmission then take out the plug and fill untill it comes out of the hole that the 5mm plug was removed from. Use only VW approved fluid.
