Technical issues and repair guidelines

For the DCT450 transmission reassembly, specialists order the repair kit of gaskets and seals. Repair kits contain gaskets (required as a minimum), which affect the operation of this delicately adjusted transmission. The wearout of Teflon rings also has a major impact on the transmission operation. Replacement of the filter with ATF is a typical repair procedure recommended for maintenance of WD Powershift transmissions. It is advisable to change oil more often and not later than after 45-50 thousand kilometers.
