Last service took Yeti to main dealer for service and Change gearbox oil as car has done 65000 miles. Was told this was a sealed unit and didn’t need change. I believe this is a load of BS. Can someone confirm one way or the other please? Many thanks.

If it is the 7 speed DQ200 box used in most petrol models then no oil change. If it is the 6 speed wet box then oil change every 40,000 miles.

If it's 02E (DQ250 iirc) then sealed for life.  At least as far as I recall.

 

You really need the gearbox code to know for sure.

 

EDIT: The above was from memory, so will leave it rather than cover up my mistake.

A DQ200 DSG requires no Oil changes of either of the 2 oils, in the box and in the MCU.

That is the 7 speed Twin Dry Clutch DSG  in the front wheel drive TSI or TDI with no more than 250 Nm and 180 ps in a Skoda.  192 ps in a VW.

(Kodiaq not included in this as they will be a DQ381)

 

(Not sealed for life because some do change the oil, and VW had a World Wide Recall in 2012 & a European Service Campaign from 2014 and the oil was chanhed in around 4 million DQ200's)
