When to Use / Replace?

Use Valvoline DCT Fluid in DSG types 02E (DQ250), OBT (DQ500), DL501, and other approved DCT gearboxes. Ideal for daily commuting, highway driving, or performance use where smooth shifts and fuel savings matter.

Replace every 60,000 km or 4 years, or sooner if towing frequently, driving in extreme temps (-30°C to 40°C+), or noticing rough shifts/slipping. Always check your owner's manual for exact intervals.
