Purpose and Specifications

ALCO FILTER ATF DSG 1L is a budget-friendly synthetic automatic transmission fluid designed for Dual Clutch Transmissions (DSG/DCT) in VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat, and ZF-equipped vehicles. It meets strict specs like VW G 052 181 A2, VW TL 521 82, and ZF TE-ML 02F/03D/04D/11B/14A/17C/09, ensuring smooth, slip-free shifting and minimal torque loss.

This 1-liter bottle delivers strong protection against wear, corrosion, and foaming, while staying neutral on seals. It maintains a stable lubricant film in extreme heat up to 150°C during heavy loads and flows easily in cold starts down to -40°C, reducing wear for longer transmission life and better fuel economy.

When to Use / Replace?

Use this fluid for DSG/DCT service in compatible VW Group cars (e.g., Golf, Jetta, Passat from 2005+) and ZF transmissions. Replace every 60,000 km or 4 years (or sooner if you notice hard shifts, slipping gears, burning smell, leaks, or noise), always with a new filter to prevent 75% of transmission failures from dirty oil.

Shelf life is 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage. A clogged filter blocks flow, causing shifting issues—pair with ALCO transmission filters for reliable performance.
