Detailed Description

Transmission fluid carries heat and hydraulic pressure through the transmission, so keeping it clean is essential. Over time, normal wear can introduce debris that may restrict flow or contribute to contamination inside the valve body and other critical passages. ATP B-179 is designed for routine transmission service on applications such as Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Passat, Volkswagen Cabrio, Volkswagen EuroVan, Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Golf City, Volkswagen Jetta City, Audi 80, Audi 90, and Audi Cabriolet. This part number, B-179, is a practical choice when servicing older VW and Audi automatic transmissions that require a filter replacement during maintenance.

This part cross-references Wix 58609 and Gates 18581 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Dirty transmission fluid from normal wear and tear
• Debris buildup that can restrict hydraulic passages
• Valve body contamination that can affect shifting performance
