This looks like a Type IV fluid. I am looking to substitute it with Redline D4 or Amsoil ATF.
I concur.
This is the current fluid in the 8 speed Aisin transmissions, (09P) for many VW passenger cars. The dealer price is about $23 per quart so getting alternate synthetic fluids can save when doing several drains/fills. The 80K transmission service recommendation for the Tiguan is not a good strategy to reach even 120K with the vehicle. I will drop the pan to replace the filter at 40K and replace most of the fluid.
Just for giggles, I did a drain/fill with Amsoil ATF this morning, and on a 200 mile trip it shifted the same. Also, sent in a sample of what I drained out to Blackstone.
