Depends on the ATF.
The genuine stuff is that yellow/greeny colour.

The Nulon and Royal branded ATFs I've used, which both meet LT 71141, are red. The Valvoline Maxlife synthetic which should also meet LT 71141 is red too.
So my transmission currently has red fluid in it!

I say coincidence, though I'd change it to be sure!

Any transmission rebuild place which put an off-spec fluid in one of these are a bunch of fools!

- has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
