Do you guys change out your transmission oil? I'm getting close to 50k miles on my GSW so I was looking into getting it changed. I learned that VW says it's a lifetime oil? What do you all do?
The dealer told me today when I called and asked about it.Where do you see that VW says it's a "lifetime" oil? Pretty sure it is a part of the 50K mile service. DSGs are done at 40K mile intervals.
I was just surprised VW doesn't recommend changing it. I think it's fine but I don't know any better. I was not changed after 100 or 1000 miles so I may just do it when I get 50k miles.Some swear that all fluids in the car need to be changed out at 100 miles and again at 1000 miles to remove initial wear metals.
So it's really up to what you want to pay have done.
I had no issues running 140K miles on my 6spd jetta. If I felt it needed it I would have changed at 100K, but engagement and feel was still the same, so i just motored on.
