It appears that LTB00054 is not the correct bulletin because that number is for D3 headlight condensation and therefore probably best not to quote that number to a dealer. V2 is just an updated release of the original bulletin, not of a different topic. |

Had the recall done today as well as the TSB update and a 4 wheel align. The gearbox is much better now, much more eager to change gear and smoother

Still considering a gearbox oil change even though it no longer feels necessary. It has done 90k on what I am guessing is the original oil. If that improves it even more I will be a happy bunny. May be early days but since picking it up the mpg has improved slightly too

I know the oil is more expensive on the 8 speed and it cannot be flushed like the 6 speed due to a built in thermostat that isolates the oil cooler until operating temperature so it's just a case of changing what you can in the box (probably about 50% of the total capacity) but at least some of the oil will be new?
