Right this is going to sound silly but another thing in the service book confusing me... I know at 40K miles I will need to have the DGS/S-Tronic Oil Change but I'm sure there is another tick box that says Multitronic Oil Change? What's the difference?
 
Maybe it's the 7 speed DSG? Not available on the A3/S3 but maybe there as a default?
 
The S3 does have a multitronic unit though i thought
 
A3 only has DSG/S-tronic gearbox fitted. These are either 6 or 7 speed with conventional clutch which is change hydraulically.
Multitrononic is a steel bell driven arrangement on cone shaped rollers.
Each uses different oil but similar procedure to change the oil.
 
Only the 6 speed DSG is available on the A3/S3 though, of is it just the S3 that it isn't available on??
 
Yeah I'm getting confused, so only one oil change related to DSG/S-Tronic
