1. Locate the fuel pump relay, which is located under the hood on the passenger side near the firewall. The fuel relay will be either light green or blue in color. Remove the fuel pump relay from the connection and store safely. Crank the vehicle and idle until it runs out of fuel.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery using a metric wrench.
3. Locate the fuel filter, which is located on the passenger side of the car, behind the rear tire and in front of the gas tank. The filter will be attached to the bottom of the car with a bracket held by a bolt.
4. Remove the fuel filter bracket by loosening the bracket bolt with a ratchet, extension and 12mm socket.
5. Place a fuel line clamp two inches from the fuel filter toward the gas tank.
6. Position the catch pan under the fuel filter to prevent a fuel spill. Use the screwdriver to remove fuel line clamps on each end of the fuel filter.
7. Using the pliers, remove the fuel filter from the fuel lines.
8. Position the new fuel filter with the flow marking pointed toward the front of the car and away from the gas tank. Slide each fuel line onto the new fuel filter.
9. Replace each fuel filter hose clamp and tighten, using the screwdriver. Remove the fuel line clamp.
10. Secure the fuel filter with the fuel filter bracket. Tighten the bracket bolt with the ratchet and socket.

1. Lift the vehicle with a floor jack and place a jack stand under the front and back axles behind each wheel. Verify that the vehicle is level when on the jack stands.
2. Locate the drain plug on the bottom of the transmission pan and place a drain pan on the ground under the plug. Remove the drain plug with a socket wrench, allowing the transmission fluid to drain completely.
3. Remove the bolts on the transmission pan with a socket wrench and set the bolts in a safe place. Remove the transmission pan, using a screwdriver to carefully pry the pan off the transmission.
4. Clean out any debris and sediment from the inside of the transmission pan with clean paper towels. Unbolt the white plastic transmission filter from underneath the transmission with a socket wrench and dispose of the filter.
5. Remove any debris and oil from the bottom of the transmission where the filter attaches, with a clean cloth. Place the new filter gasket between the bottom of the transmission housing and the transmission filter and attach the new transmission filter to the bottom of the transmission.
6. Scrape the remaining gasket material off the bottom of the transmission and off the transmission pan with a putty knife. Place the new rubber transmission pan gasket around the lip of the transmission pan.
7. Attach the transmission pan to the bottom of the transmission and secure it with bolts. Screw the drain plug into the bottom of the transmission pan by hand until it is snug and tighten the drain plug with a socket wrench just enough so it is secure.
8. Unscrew the fill plug on the side of the transmission fluid oil pan with a socket wrench. Refill the transmission oil pan with transmission fluid, using a high output pump, until the fluid is running out of the pan.
9. Install the oil fill plug of the Audi automatic transmission pan and tighten by hand. Turn the engine on and place your foot on the brake pedal. Shift the transmission into each gear for about ten seconds to run the fluid through the transmission.
10. Put the transmission back into park and let the engine idle. Remove the oil fill plug on the side of the transmission pan by hand and fill the pan with fluid using the high output pump until the fluid runs out of the fill hole.
11. Place the drain plug into the side of the drain pan, securing it with the socket wrench. Shut off the vehicle engine.
12. Lift the vehicle up with a floor jack to remove all the jack stands and set the vehicle back down on the ground. Dispose of the drained transmission fluid at the local recyclers or automotive center.
