DSG oil change
Price includes oil, filter and labour. DSG oil must never be mixed with other ATF oils — it will destroy the gearbox.

When DSG oil needs changing
DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) is a dual-clutch gearbox combining manual gearbox efficiency with automatic comfort. It contains two separate clutches and a complex hydraulic system. Oil quality is critical — the gearbox doesn't tolerate any oil degradation. Recommended interval is 60 000 km. Symptoms of aged oil: harsh jerks on shifts (especially at low rpm), vibration pulling away from a stop, "mechatronics fault" on the dashboard, and the gearbox can go into limp mode. Preserving VAG warranty requires oil changes at the recommended intervals.
How DSG oil is changed
DSG gearbox oil level is critical — too much causes damage, too little also. The oil change is done with the car on a lift and level, the drain plug is opened and old oil drains. The sump is removed and the filter is renewed. The sump magnet is checked for metal shavings. New oil is filled via specialist equipment to the correct point — typically a side port. The gearbox oil is heated under diagnostic tool control to 35–45 °C, the temperature at which the oil has the correct volume. Overflow oil seeps out of the inspection port, and when it flows as a small drip, the oil level is correct. An adaptation is run via the diagnostic tool to calibrate the gearbox to the new oil.

Why do DSG gearboxes fail?
The most common DSG problems come from oil quality degradation. Wet-clutch models (DQ250, DQ500) destruct fastest when oil isn't changed — the clutches consume oil and metal shavings form, clogging the hydraulics. The dry-clutch DQ200 suffers from mechatronics unit errors — replacing the control unit can cost 2 000 €. VW's well-known technical service bulletins (TSBs) should be checked and applied so the gearbox has the latest updated settings.
