F80 DCT Service: Question

[zkhockey10]

I have 29k miles on my 2018 F80 Comp

I wanted to do my DCT fluid for the 30k service.

I know they say 50k is the number but I find that it doesn’t hurt to do it every 30k.

What would the cost be to get it done at a shop?

(I don’t want to do it myself because apparently you need software to get maximum fill).

There really is no need to do it so early. Guys have already tested the fluid even at 30K and it showed almost no wear! The fluid is not lifetime but it's probably good for 60K miles.

Some dude had it done at 80k and sent the old fluid for analysis to Blackstone and gotten back that everything looked great. I wouldn't worry so much this early

This dude had his done over 100k

It's not cheap like brake or diff fluid, I remember hearing the service is over 1k

Gotcha! 60k isn’t too bad! I can sit tight then
