Tranny Oil Change

I own a '98 A4 2.8q with Tiptronic

What type of oil is used in a tiptronic tranny and how much?

Thanks.

Henry

Redline for a ZF 5HP19 transmission, really?

Maybe things have changed since I was last here, but ZF is VERY specific about their fluid recommendations.

EDIT-And redline was not approved by ZF.

I suggest he buy the AUDI/VW recommended fluid, but do it from a VW dealer, it's only $12/qt there versus $20/qt for the same bottle at audi.
