These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 4Original post

Has anyone got a guide on how to change the oil on the tiptronic gearbox? Getting my C4 up on friends ramp in week or so and it’s a job I want to get done

POST 5Original post

Get a garage to do it. Most of the bolts will snap. The drain and fill plugs could also be very stubborn. PC Tonnbridge did mine and I didn’t envy them, they did a fantastic job as always.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
