Compare Toyota DSG oil service quotes from specialist garages

Toyota is the world's largest car manufacturer, famous for the reliability of its vehicles, from the classic Hilux pickup truck to more recent electrified models like the RAV4 Plug-in, which is the most satisfying new car to own in 2023, according to Which?.

Data shows that 20 years after they were sold, 80% of Toyota cars are still on the road. It's hardly surprising that Toyota earned the title of 'Most Reliable Car Brand' at the 2023 Fleet News FN50 Awards. The brand is also cheap to maintain, as our comparison of Toyota and Ford demonstrates.

Toyota's commitment to green innovation, which has seen the development of numerous electric models, extends beyond passenger cars to the racetrack - in 2021, its racing division introduced the GR10 Hybrid Hypercar to compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship.

A direct shift gearbox offers an alternative to conventional automatic transmissions. It's an electronic dual-clutch system used by manufacturers in the Volkswagen group (including Skoda, SEAT and Audi) because it allows faster gear changes with a smooth flow of power that can help drivers save fuel.

Six and seven-speed direct shift gearboxes have proven highly reliable, but this reliability is aided by regular servicing. Most manufacturers recommend booking a DSG oil change and service every 40,000 miles.

The gearbox is examined for leaks and potential problems during a DSG service. Once this is done, the technician carries out a DSG transmission fluid and filter change. The benefits of a DSG oil change are numerous: it extends the life of the transmission, gives better fuel efficiency, allows for faster shifting, keeps your warranty valid for repairs (if you have one) and improves the performance of your vehicle.
