REPAIR KIT FOR THE VAG DQ381 ‘WET’ DOUBLE CLUTCH SYSTEM The new LuK RepSet 2CT kit, part number 602002600, can service over 300,000 popular VAG vehicles that are equipped with the DQ381 ‘wet’ double clutch system, including the Audi A3, Q2, Q3 and TT, Seat Ateca, Leon and Tarraco, Skoda Karoq, Octavia and Superb and Volkswagen Caddy, Golf VII, Passat, T-Roc, Tiguan and Touran. The DQ381, is an electronically controlled, twin-clutch, multiple-shaft, automatic gearbox, in either a transaxle or traditional transmission layout, depending on the engine/drive configuration, and features automated clutch operation and selectable fully automatic or semi-manual gear selection. Smaller and lighter than previous versions, it was developed to reduce fuel consumption and lower emissions. The parts in the LuK RepSet 2CT box are the same as Schaeffler delivers to vehicle manufacturers for original fitment, and an IMI certified REPXPERT two-day transmission course is available so that technicians have the confidence to perform professional double clutch replacements.
