The difference

Why a flush beats a drain and refill

Up to 100% new oil

A drain and refill only changes 30 to 50% of the oil and mixes the rest. Our machine replaces up to all of it.

The right oil

We buy the correct transmission oils in bulk, which keeps the price down without cutting corners.

Smoother shifts

Clean oil can clear minor shifting faults and helps the gearbox last longer.

When to change it

Every 40,000 to 50,000 miles

We recommend changing automatic gearbox oil every 40,000 to 50,000 miles or every four years, whichever comes first.

For VW, Audi, SEAT and Skoda dual-clutch gearboxes, our DSG service is set up for the needs of those transmissions.

How it works

What happens

ConnectThe car goes up on the lift and the FluidPRO ATX 280 is connected to the gearbox.
FlushThe old oil is pushed out as the new oil goes in, so there's no mixing and no cross-contamination.
CheckWe set the level to the maker's figure and test the gear changes before the car goes home.

Reviews

What customers say

Took my Golf GTI for a DSG gearbox service and was greeted by a helpful receptionist who answered a few questions. Staff were very polite. Very happy with the work done. 👍

Tom Griffiths VW

The gearbox is so much more responsive since having the Stage 3 tune! Gearchanges are a lot faster, the car accelerates much quicker. By far my favourite bit is the full manual, with the paddle conversion its just so much better to drive!

Ollie BMW 335D Diesel

Great job tuning our BMW and Touareg! Had both engine and gearbox stage 1 done on both. The gearbox tune made a big difference i must say! Good booking process and efficient with time. Highly recommended!

Common questions

How often should I change my gearbox oil?

Every 40,000 to 50,000 miles or every four years is our recommendation, unless your car's maker says sooner.

What is a dynamic oil change?

Instead of draining what will come out and topping up, the machine pushes the old oil out as new oil goes in, so up to 100% is replaced.

Do you service DSG gearboxes?

Yes. Send your registration and we'll check which DSG gearbox your car has and what its service needs.

Can you tune the gearbox too?

Yes. Ask about gearbox tuning at the same time.
