Liqui Moly Dual Clutch Transmission Oil 8100

Liqui Moly Dual Clutch Transmission Oil 8100 is a high-performance transmission oil based on HC synthetic base oils, specifically developed for modern dual clutch transmissions (DCT / DSG).

Its advanced additive package combines highly shear-resistant viscosity index improvers, modern anti-wear additives and stable friction modifiers to provide excellent clutch performance, smooth shifting and reliable transmission protection.

This lubricant is especially suited to dual clutch transmissions that use a shared oil supply for the clutch, synchronisation system, gear set and hydraulic control system. Liqui Moly currently lists it for a broad range of DCT specifications from BMW, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Porsche, Volkswagen and other manufacturers.

Key Features:

✔ Developed for Dual Clutch Transmissions – Formulated specifically for DCT and DSG-type transmissions.
✔ Excellent Clutch Performance – Stable friction characteristics support smooth clutch engagement and gear changes.
✔ High Wear Protection – Advanced anti-wear additives help protect gears, bearings, clutches and transmission components.
✔ Excellent Shear Stability – Maintains viscosity under demanding transmission operating conditions.
✔ Outstanding Oxidation Resistance – Helps resist oil degradation at elevated operating temperatures.
✔ Excellent Low-Temperature Performance – Maintains fluidity during cold starts and low-temperature operation.
✔ Strong Aging Stability – Helps maintain transmission oil performance throughout its service life.
✔ Wide Compatibility – Suitable for numerous manufacturer DCT specifications and OE reference numbers.

Areas of Application:

Suitable for compatible:

Dual Clutch Transmissions
DSG transmissions
DCT transmissions
Wet-clutch dual clutch systems
Transmissions using one common lubricant for the clutch, gears, synchronisers and hydraulic control system
Application:

Use according to the vehicle or transmission manufacturer's prescribed specification and service procedure.

Always confirm the exact transmission type and required fluid specification before filling.

Where possible, transmission fluid should be replaced according to the manufacturer's recommended service interval and correct filling-temperature procedure.

Important Notes:

Confirm Transmission Specification: DCT and DSG transmissions use different fluid specifications depending on gearbox design. Always confirm the exact gearbox code or VIN before use.

Do Not Use as a Universal ATF: This product is specifically formulated for compatible dual clutch transmission applications and should not be substituted for conventional ATF, CVT fluid or manual transmission oil unless specifically approved.

Correct Fluid Level Is Critical: Dual clutch transmissions often require a specific filling procedure and fluid temperature when setting the final oil level.

Professional Installation Recommended: DCT/DSG servicing should preferably be carried out by a technician familiar with the applicable transmission.
