Purpose and Specifications

Castrol Transmax Dual 1L is a full synthetic dual clutch transmission fluid designed for smooth, reliable shifting in modern vehicles. It uses Smooth Drive Technology to deliver enhanced friction durability, keeping gear changes buttery smooth even after thousands of kilometers, and provides superior wear protection that extends transmission life.

This green-colored oil excels in extreme conditions, staying fluid down to -72°C for easy cold starts and maintaining thickness up to 230°C to protect clutches and gears during heavy loads or towing. Approved for Audi/VW (G 052 529), Ford, Volvo, Mitsubishi, Chrysler Europe, Peugeot Getrag DCT, SEAT, and Skoda 6-speed DSG, it's factory-filled by major manufacturers.

• Smooth Drive Technology: Reduces shift harshness for a comfortable ride.
• Thermal Stability: Resists breakdown in hot traffic or high-speed driving.
• Cold Flow: Flows instantly in freezing weather, preventing stiff shifting.
• Wear Protection: Shields components for longer transmission durability.

When to Use / Replace?

Use Castrol Transmax Dual in dual clutch transmissions (DCT/DSG) per your owner's manual specs. Ideal for daily commuting, highway cruising, or spirited driving where smooth shifts matter. Replace every 60,000-100,000 km or 4-5 years, or sooner if you notice rough shifting, slipping clutches, or unusual noises—whichever comes first. Shelf life is 5 years when stored cool and dry.

Operates best from -40°C to 150°C, reducing operating temps through lower friction for better efficiency.
