Did this today too. At 25k mi. on 2016 GTI DSG. Its been 3 summers with 110F+ heat and tuned, so was curious how it looked and didn't want to wait to 40k.
Old fluid had color still but was dark. New Pentosin was light and transparent. With the car slightly front end up, drained 4.8L and filled 4.9L (extra for filter). Filled from hole at top filter area. Slow process. Will get something like the attached pic next time - slowly feeds on it's own propped up instead of numerous small pours. Holds a good amount and has on/off spout.
All in all, very DIY and less than $125 for fluid, filter, gasket, and crush washer.
