Excellent

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

Thanks for the feedback 👍

[@metarich2451]

Not sure if I missed it so apologies if I did but what was the torque setting for the filter housing? Great tutorial by the way 👍

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

25Nm. Thanks for the feedback 👍

[@matthousley8347]

Great tutorial! I have 7speed DQ381 in Kodiaq. Dealer suggests oil only change at 70k miles. Ive done 47k and want to change oil for peace of mind. Am I ok to just change oil or should filter be changed as well? Any harm just doing oil? Thanks

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

If you are going to the trouble of changing the oil id recommend doing the filter at the same time.

[@mcdonaldkandenge2702]

Does the gearbox and mechatronic use the same oil? Because I didn’t see you fill the mechatronic.

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

When you refill the system through the gearbox drain/refill point it will also fill the mechatronics at the same time. Just got a separate drain plug but use the same fill point.

[@herceg6772]

Thanks for this. I have DSG7 and my Skoda dealer says that I don’t need to change the gear oil. It’s maintenance free.

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

All automatic gearboxes should be serviced, as debris from the internal clutches will contaminate the oil overtime

[@andrewgateway]

But does this gearbox have dry clutch?

[@2525miche]

As another filling alternative, can I fill the transmission oil over the top of the oil filter opening with a funnel?

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

This is not something we have ever done but in theory it should be ok. But please note this deviates away from the procedure and we wouldn't recommend it.

[@TheTopG99]

40K of miles i get that but you didn't say how much of time does it's take like every 40K miles or 5 years can you explain that please?

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

My recommendation would be 4 years or 40k. Manufacturer recommendations will be different

[@bertsmith7940]

My Skoda dealership says my 2019 1.6 TDI 7 speed dash gearbox is a sealed for life gearbox is this correct please if not what mileage or year do you recommend the oil and filter change please?

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

No automatic gearbox should be sealed for life. The way the gearbox works it's by pressure and numerous clutches which are designed to slip. This slipping will cause debris in the oil over time. Personally I'd recommend every 40-50k miles. If your call TPS I'm sure they will give you a quote for a service kit, along with their recommendations for intervals.

[@bertsmith7940]

@@DropTheBoxOfficial thanks

[@thepub245]

Make sure you can get the fill cap off before draining the oil!

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

Filling and draining is from the same plug

[@DTroop10thCav.]

I have a 2019 Octavia 2.0 diesel 150 ps with the dsg DQ 381 7 speed.My Skoda dealer said I need to change the oil at 120.00 kilometers.I will change it before this but is this the 120.000 correct.Thanks making the video...interesting.

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

The dealerships often change the service intervals for certain items. Last I heard it was 70k miles which is about 120,000km. Personally I'd recommend every 40k miles. Thanks

[@DTroop10thCav.]

@@DropTheBoxOfficial Thanks for your reply.I did not notice you were in miles instead of kilometers.I will be sure to change it before 120.000 .

[@madrock1444]

Hi m8, on how many miles ( km) , do you need to change this gear oil?

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

On the 7 speed DSG I believe it's 80k where as the 6 speed DSG is 40k.

[@Ph3NiX80]

it depends on the DSG model/submodel...my Tiguan MY 2019 has a DSG7 DQ381 (UAY 0GC) and it's officialy rated by WV dealership for a 120.000 km oil change interval. Old DSG's were 60.000 km I belive

[@markdavies3624]

How much do you charge for the gearbox service Skoda superb dsg 7 speed thanks

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

Sorry we don't carry out servicing but we can certainly recommend a reputable local garage that will be able to provide you with a quote. MTM Motor Services 01554 752004

[@sahni1000]

After how many kilometers was that service done?

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

This was done after 40k miles, but the manufacturer recommendations is 70k miles. Please check with your local dealership as these intervals can change

[@joshlehan8057]

What mileage should the first service on the gearbox be ?👍

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

If you go by the manufacturers recommendations it's 70k on the newer DSG & 40K on the older DSG

[@joshlehan8057]

@@DropTheBoxOfficial thanks if mines 192 and 48000 kilometres would mine be old or new thanks

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

Your best bet is to phone your local dealer or tps parts supplier. They will advise you on which service interval it requires

[@richarddey6793]

is this the same for Tiguan?,

[@DropTheBoxOfficial]

Yes will be exactly the same for all vehicles with a 7 speed DSG gearbox
