i don't why pdk fluid should have much longer change intervals than manual trans fluid in stick shift cars... i believe good preventative maintenance on tracked cars is considered to be gear oil change every 8-10 track days...
i am hardly an expert... what am i missing?
i remember with bimmers in the last decade BMW would say auto trans fluid is lifetime fluid... and over time, e46, e39, e60 auto transmissions started failing as cars were driven 75-100k miles, and then bmw altered their stance...

After talking to several dealers in MA, none of whom have done any PDK clutch oil changes and since I was also worried about a Transmission pan drain plug problem, causing replacement.
I contacted PCNA and gave them my VIN.
Got a call back today and pending a dealer recognizing a need, was told I can wait for the 120K/12 year PDK service, for clutch oil change.
Just a FYI to consider.

LOVE the Sport Classics! Now, all you need is a Techart III wing…
I had looked at HREs, Champions, BBSs, and I was afraid they would be too much black (is that possible?) on my black C2S.
They look perfect.
