    The DSG has an oil and filter change at 60k, if you have a standard auto, you don't need it.

    If you google passat and get the wiki, you can do all your own research on the gearbox code easy done

    Is that the 147kw 2litre TSI? I think all of those had a regular auto box (not the DSG).

    My tsi has the dry clutch 7sp DSG but I have the 1.8litre motor (118kw).
