Manufacturer's description
Divinol DCT Fluid, also marketed as Divinol DSG Fluid, is a dual-clutch transmission fluid for vehicles that require DCTF oils. It can be used in VW Group vehicles with DSG gearboxes from model year 2003 onwards, and further applications include Ford, Volvo, Chrysler, Peugeot, Citroën and Mitsubishi cars with 6-speed dual-clutch transmissions from 2007. The fluid offers longer-lasting, smooth shifting thanks to improved friction characteristics, an improved load-carrying capacity and therefore extended gear life, and better seal compatibility, which means better protection of both the gearbox and the environment. Because it covers so many DCT applications it also helps workshops reduce the number of oils they need to stock. It is deployed as a dual-clutch transmission oil in passenger cars, in accordance with the manufacturers' specifications. Divinol DCT Fluid holds the MB-Approval 236.21 and the manufacturer states performance in line with VW G 052 182 / G 052 529 / DSG DQ 200, Ford WSS-M2C936-A / WSD-M2C200-D2 / 1490761 / 1490763, Fiat 9.55550-MZ6, Chrysler 68044345, Volvo 1161838 / 1161839, Peugeot/Citroën 9734.S2, Mitsubishi MZ320065 Dia-Queen SSTF-I, Porsche 999.917.080.00, BMW 83 22 2 148 578 / 83 22 2 148 579 / 83 22 0 440 214 / 83 22 2 147 477, BOT 341 and Renault EDC.
