What is the oil change interval for Volkswagen's 6-speed wet dual-clutch transmission?
1 Answers
In general, the transmission fluid (for dual-clutch transmissions) should be replaced every three years or 60,000 kilometers. Specialized automatic transmission equipment must be used to completely remove the old fluid and other impurities, which differs from changing engine oil. Residual fluid can accumulate with sludge and impurities in the valve body, torque converter, and cooling lines, leading to blockages in the internal oil passages of the system.
