Check your DSG Stronic gearbox for leaks while in warranty.

Check your gearbox for leaks. I was lucky to catch this before warranty runs out next year. I have a MY16 2.0tdi ultra sport 190ps Stronic.

Look for leaks around the oil pan and where the gearbox meets the engine.

I had the oil pan seal replaced but there was a further leak and I had to go back again for the seal failing where the gearbox meets the engine. They replaced all seals on the second warranty trip because on this occasion they had to drop the gearbox out.

The photos with the red arrows are from the second warranty trip where it was still leaking.

how did you notice the leak in the first place?
also did any drop on the floor?
