Default CVT fluid change.

I know that there are probably several threads about the CVT transmission, but I was hoping if anyone had done a CVT fluid change, or maybe a DIY.

Unless it is really needed to get this done by the dealer or special mechanic, I like to know if it is possible to do it, what fluid is best, and if special tools are needed.

I also own a VW JEtta, which has also called "lifetime" fluid, but with some special tools i was able to do this as several others had done that.

Any help is appreciated.

well... you need a $50 Dipstick, that's about it.
Fluid Wise, ONLY use mopar OEM fluid. even tho I don't think you have a cheaper option anyway.
procedure is like normal trans, need Fluid, Filter, and Gasket.
