AMSOIL 100% Synthetic DCT Fluid is a premium synthetic transmission fluid engineered for the unique lubrication requirements of dual-clutch transmissions. Designed for use in a wide range of European, Asian and performance vehicle applications, it provides the friction characteristics, wear protection and viscosity stability required for fast, smooth and consistent transmission operation.

Dual-clutch transmissions combine elements of conventional manual and automatic transmission design, using two clutches to prepare the next gear while the current gear remains engaged. This allows extremely rapid gear changes with minimal interruption to power delivery, but places specialised demands on the transmission fluid. AMSOIL Synthetic DCT Fluid is formulated to maintain dependable performance under the high temperatures, mechanical loads and repeated shifting encountered in these sophisticated transmissions.

Fast, Smooth and Consistent Shifting

Dual-clutch transmissions are capable of seamless, split-second shifts but can suffer from shudder or lurching at slow speeds. AMSOIL 100% Synthetic DCT Fluid is engineered to prevent shudder in sophisticated dual-clutch transmissions. Its frictional properties provide superior protection and consistently produce fast, smooth shifts.

AMSOIL Synthetic DCT Fluid's exceptional durability ensures stability in stop-and-go traffic. It promotes stable synchroniser engagements, helping extend transmission life while maintaining the responsive shift quality expected from a dual-clutch transmission.

Outstanding Wear Protection

AMSOIL Synthetic DCT Fluid resists the extreme heat found in today's high-temperature DCTs to provide protection for gears, bearings and other vital components. Its high film strength and anti-wear/extreme-pressure additives are specifically designed to protect the metal surfaces of dual-clutch transmissions.

Resists Heat and Oxidation

Maintaining proper viscosity at extreme temperatures is crucial to protecting the components of a dual-clutch transmission. AMSOIL Synthetic DCT Fluid provides dependable protection during the intense operating conditions encountered in high-performance sports sedans, sports cars and supercars.

Superior Shear Stability

Transmission fluid can shear at the molecular level as it passes between gear teeth, leading to reduced viscosity and decreased wear protection. AMSOIL Synthetic DCT Fluid resists shear and maintains consistent viscosity, even under the extreme stresses generated by high-horsepower, high-torque applications.

  • Outstanding wear protection
  • Excellent performance in extreme heat and cold
  • Designed to prevent shudder
