Genuine VW High Performance Gear Oil (G060175A2)
As an authorised retailer of Genuine VW Parts, we supply the official VW High Performance Gear Oil under part number G060175A2. This is the same gear oil specified by Volkswagen for use in a range of their performance transmissions, ensuring your gearbox receives the exact fluid it was designed to run on.
Using the correct gear oil is one of the most important things you can do to protect your transmission. The wrong specification can lead to poor shifting, increased wear, and in some cases, long term damage. Sticking with the genuine VW fluid removes that guesswork.
What This Gear Oil Does
Gear oil performs a different job to engine oil. It lubricates the gears, bearings and synchros (the parts that help gears mesh smoothly) inside your gearbox, while also protecting against heat and wear under load. A high performance gear oil like this one is formulated to cope with the demands of modern VW transmissions, including those fitted to higher output and performance models.
- Genuine VW fluid, matched to factory specification
- Maintains smooth shifting and gear engagement
- Protects against wear under high torque and high temperature
- Helps extend the service life of the transmission
Fitment
This oil is specified for use in a number of VW Group manual and performance transmissions. Because gearbox oil specifications vary significantly between models and even between production years, it is essential to confirm this is the correct fluid for your vehicle and gearbox before purchase.
Please use the vehicle lookup tool or check the Vehicle Fitment tab to confirm this is the correct gear oil for your specific transmission. If you are unsure, refer to your service documentation or VW dealer for the required specification.
Why Choose Genuine
There are many aftermarket gear oils on the market, but the safest choice is always the fluid your manufacturer specifies. Genuine VW G060175A2 is approved for use by Volkswagen, meaning it meets every requirement of the gearboxes it is designed for, with no compromise on additive package, viscosity or wear protection.
Pair this gear oil with a full transmission service for the best results, and always follow VW’s recommended fill quantities and procedures during installation.
Applications
Please note, customers are wholly responsible for checking fitment for their vehicle.
