Gearbox Servicing Depends on the Transmission
Gearboxes are not all the same. Manual, automatic, DSG, CVT and other transmission types have different oil, filter and service requirements. Some need specialist procedures, temperatures or reset/adaptation steps.
We check the vehicle details before advising, so the service matches the gearbox fitted to your car.
What We Consider
- Gearbox type and manufacturer requirements
- Correct oil specification and quantity
- Filter or sump replacement where required
- Service interval and service history
- Gear change symptoms and fault codes where relevant
- Adaptation or reset requirements where appropriate
When to Ask About Gearbox Service
- Harsh, delayed or jerky gear changes
- Gearbox service overdue or unknown history
- Vehicle used for towing or heavy driving
- Transmission warning message
- Oil leak around gearbox area
- Clutch or dual-clutch behaviour concerns
