Dual-clutch service and repair
PDK is Porsche's dual-clutch transmission, and despite the sealed-for-life label it needs fluid service on the factory interval for your model. A PDK service at Alpine Autowerks uses exact-specification fluid, the factory procedure and factory-level tooling for fluid level, adaptation and calibration.
The right tooling is the whole job. This is what goes into a dual-clutch service at our shop.
Exact-specification fluids only, because "compatible" is how good gearboxes die young.
Fluid services done with the exact factory procedure, not a drain and guess.
Modern European transmissions require factory-level equipment for fluid level, adaptation and calibration.
The control unit relearns how each clutch engages, which is what keeps shifts clean after a service.
A factory-level scan, fluid inspection and road test before any conclusion.
The fluid, the procedure and everything we found, recorded in your service file.
Some low-speed behaviour is inherent to the design, some is adaptation drift, and some is early wear. A proper diagnosis separates personality from problem.
Transmission replacements are among the most misdiagnosed repairs in the trade. We verify the finding with evidence either way.
Every quote in plain English before a single bolt turns, and nothing added without your yes.
Factory-trained technicians who work on these platforms every day, and a Calgary reputation built on telling owners the truth about their cars.
Lifetime fill usually means the transmission's lifetime, which the fluid quietly shortens. Fluid ages, and changing it on a sensible interval protects the gearbox.
On the factory interval for your specific gearbox, which varies by model and use. Send us your VIN and we'll tell you the real number and when it's next due.
Not necessarily. Some low-speed behaviour is inherent to the design, some is adaptation drift, and some is early wear. A proper diagnosis comes before anyone mentions a rebuild.
