I have a while to go yet, but since I have seen some threads quoting the price of the 40K service and DSG fluid change it got me wondering if anyone has used Wheaton Service center to perform this service.

They are on the trusted mechanics list and I was thinking that I would have them potentially work on my car once the 3 years "Free" runs out.

Please share any experiences that you have had with them.

Cheers!

So I called and found that they were priced pretty close to the 40K cost at the dealer, and cannot do the DSG service as they dont have the equipment!

I've used Wheaton Service Center since 2000. Very trustworthy, thorough and honest. They are the reason I still drive VW's because I dont to have to find another honest shop.

I got the same response about them not having the DSG equipment yet. Hope they get it soon.

What "DSG equipment" is needed to do a DSG service? A B7 40K service and DSG fluid change demonstration were done by Jason (compu_85) and Matt (Matt-89AHU) in the parking lot at this year's TDI Fest.
