DSG transmission oil change?

Featured Replies

Obviously far too early to worry about this in our 2025 TDI DSG L&K, but I'm wondering what the current thinking on transmission oil changes is. On our 2012 170 TDI DSG, I think we were initially told the transmission was "sealed for life" but after a while we took to getting a full transmission oil change every 3 years at the main dealer service. Whether that had anything to do with it, the DSG operated flawlessly throughout our ownership and continues to do so for its new owner (I still do business with the repair shop owner who sold it on, so I keep up with how it's going..). So what's the expectation for the MkIV? And for anyone who had a MkIII before their IV, did you change the transmission oil at any specific intervals?

best,

M.
