Every 40000, does not say a time limit. Had mine done at 4 Years for peace of mind?  :happy2:

£169 on VW fixed price service plan.

Having spoken with vw customer service any future DSG box problems will not be supported with goodwill.

Elsa says 40k miles only, no mention of a time limit although it's not a bad idea to change it perhaps as gearboxes are not cheap.

Sarcasm for free. Anything after that can only be considered as a bonus.

Just because you think you know something, doesn't make you an expert if you've just read it on the internet, y'know.

mine was done at 40k but had seen over 4 years but i was told by dealers that there was no time limit at the time then i read stuff on the internet about vw not contributing to any problems with the dsg if it hadnt been done every 4 years or 40k
