with Wes Dickens
Location: Pompano FL, Address To Be Determined
4 Hour Course 8:00AM -12:00PM
European Transmissions
Modern day transmissions in European vehicles can be very intimidating, but they don’t have to be. By gaining a basic understanding of how they work, common failures, and how to properly service them, the intimidation factor can be eased. This will open up a new opportunity for your shop to gain revenue in an area that may have been previously missed.
This training course will offer a look into 3 of the most common transmissions currently in use today from Audi/VW, BMW, and Mercedes Benz. Additionally, there will be a hands on training on the service procedure of the Mercedes 9g Tronic.
After this course, a technician will be able to:
- Identify a transmission in need of an oil change
- Interpret signs of a transmission that will be harmed from an oil change
- Explain the properties and importance of the correct oils and filtering media
- Review the basics of transmission operation
- Describe the steps to changing the transmission oil in a DSG (Audi/VW) and a ZF 8HP (BMW)
- Complete a transmission service on a Mercedes 9g Tronic

- Sensors used to monitor the vehicle’s environment, and how they operate
- Effects of worn components on ADAS systems
- Common tools and equipment needed for ADAS calibration
- Types of front camera calibrations and their environmental prerequisites
- Volkswagen front radar calibration
- Audi/Volkswagen backup camera calibration
- Audi/Volkswagen 360 camera calibration
