Fully or Semi Synthetic Gear oil?

Also, may sound stupid but work for Jag Land Rover - would their oil be acceptable?

Thanks

Mark, i'd suggest doing a search mate, there's dozens of threads recently on this subject

I did

Quick search didn't show whether fully or semi was required

Buy genuine VW stuff only.

My local garage tried some other stuff and the box felt awful. This was fixed with vw own-brand

3x bottles of VW gearbox oil is what you need. changing is dead easy and takes about 30 minutes to do.

Think you need a special socket though.
