How often you change transmission oil?
Hello,
My car has 84000 km, do Audi dealer changes it when it's time or I need to ask?
Thanks

Re: How often you change transmission oil?
Audi say the gearboxes are supposed to be "sealed for the life of the car" but ZF (who actually make the gearbox) say ythat you should change the oil every 62k miles (100k KM) or 8 years for ANY gearbox they make! - https://www.zf.com/corporate/en_de/afte ... ang_1.html

It's usually a problem getting the service people to read past the "Sealed of Life" section in their maintenance documents, rather than actually having a look for the oil procedure, but there definitely is one.

Yes. Audi dealer says transmission etc every 60000km if you want i can take pic service program.
Re: How often you change transmission oil?
Is that due to cold conditions though - counting as extreme due to viscosity changes?FinlandRS6C7 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 29, 2018 7:54 pmYes. Audi dealer says transmission etc every 60000km if you want i can take pic service program.

Yes. I think that could be reason of that. We have same service manual in Finland and Germany.
