Compare owner experiences of fluid leakage between the two variants. Does the more complex DCT system show higher leak rates due to heat, pressure, o r weak sealing?

Much more common in the DCT variant:

DCT generates more heat → weakens seals faster.

Complex sealing points in DCT.

Manual models rarely leak unless subjected to rough driving o r improper repairs.

Owner experience:

Majority of leak reports come from DCT owners.

Manual variant generally considered robust regarding fluid containment.
