Hello,
The OEM part number for the DQ200 - 7 speed transmission oil is: "G 052 512 A2" (1 liter)
Seems there are product information sheets from various lubricant manufactures that state the 'suitable' gear oil is a "GL-4 SAE 75W-80 oil"
I personally would use a fully synthetic SAE 75W-80 oil, but that is just me.
Hope this helps,
drpeter

Hello ,I think this 7 speed dsg uses two different fluids,one for mechatronics,and another for gear unit,I wonder which one he's asking,anyway didn't VW change the type used on mechatronics after mass failures in hotter climates???
thanks for all the replies! , yes the mechatronic uses 1litre hydraulic fluid, i was inquiring about the Gearbox section , i will use what is suggested 75w-80 fully synth..

I've seen many threads on my other VW forum.

It affects the solder in the mechatronic unit.

VW OE green pentosin. Same that goes to power steering.
Really,how can this happen and yet this oil cannot come into contact with mechatronics???,it only lubricates the gear,otherwise it would mix with the pentosin green oil for mechatronics and cause contamination, I've dismantled this tranny and I can say categorically that the mechatronics is sealed and it isn't possible,and please share the TPI so that it opens our eyes!
