Gearbox servicing requirements.

Post by Pinkfoot » Wed Apr 10, 2019 4:41 pm

The motor I am interested in has not had a gearbox oil change in 70k miles.
Obviously Audi say its filled for life ,just like Range Rovers were ,until the inevitable.
Is this likely to cause any issues?

I did mine @100K and it was well worth it - smoother gear changes and eternal piece of mind.

Suggest to opt for genuine / OEM parts (incl. oil).
2008 RS6 Avant (Monza Silver)
- Stage II MRC tune with gearbox (720PS/850Nm)
- MIJ Powerflow exhaust (non-res)
- H&R ARBs

Start afresh.
