2015 VW Passat 6 Speed
The VW service guy confirmed that G052527A2 is the correct fluid for my 6 speed manual. It's kinda pricey, around $45/qt, so I thought I'd search for some alternatives. But being a VW fluid, VW appears to not tell much about their gear oils (unless I just can't find the specs).
I'd like to know the weight of this stuff and if it's a GL4 or GL5 if anyone out there has info. It's labeled as a high performance gear oil and from what little I can determine by looking at some compatibles, it may be a GL5.
