I’m pretty sure my Audi mechanic mentioned issues with a part of the R32 drivetrain or similar. The oil must be changed at the required intervals to avoid destruction. I’m sure a VW forum would provide much better info.

He wasn’t talking about engine oil.

I think this is referring to the DSG autobox, I think the earlier versions were particularly sensitive to self-destructing if the service intervals were not respected. Mine was a manual, lovely 6-speed box, really nice to shortshift from 2 to 4 to 6 on slip roads just for the hell of it
