Presumably a DSG service includes an oil change? Its good practice to change gear box oil early on a new car, normally after a couple of thousand miles. Doing it at 10k certainly wouldn't be a bad thing to help wash out the swarf from running the 'box in.

Top Cat:
The DSG box does improve after a service but Hurdy had his done as a fix to try and stop the bit of slip he was getting, as he has abused his down the strip often  :grin: and his car has a high level of torque.

animal:
Ah I see - punishing a gearbox down a strip with less than 10k on it? At least it's being used properly!  :happy2:

The older 6spd DSG 'box on the GTi is wet clutch - correct?

Top Cat:
Yes you are correct.  :smiley:
