It’s a complete ready to install package, using a clever sandwich plate design for straightforward and completely reliable installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTransferring more power and torque through the DSG gearbox generates ever more heat to dissipate. Significantly increased oil temperatures means only one thing: a decrease in the ability for your DSG box to stay properly cooled, eventually causing power drop and gear selection issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder hard driving, the factory DSG oil\/water cooler is easily overwhelmed. Problems start to occur when oil cannot dissipate its collected heat fast enough and the oil begins to thin and degrade – losing its lubrication properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen this happens, the DSG will protect itself and begin to lower the engine torque, increase shift times and eventually loose gear selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RacingLine kit solves this problem: by adding in an additional air\/oil cooler positioned right in the airflow at the front of the car, oil temperatures are reduced by around 15 – 20 degrees centigrade (of course dependant on how the car is being used, ambient temps and state of tune).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit uses a clever design which retains the factory oil\/water cooling and adds to it with the thermostatically-controlled front-mounted cooler – doubling up your cooling capability when it’s needed with less heat transfer into the water system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly when the oil exceeds normal temperatures, the thermostat opens. Oil temperature then drops significantly as it is pumped through the densely packed fins of the 10-row cooler’s large surface area mounted right in the cool airflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e VWR29DQ381EVO\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eManufacturer compatibility check\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMQB Evo 2.0 TSI with DQ381 seven-speed DSG only. Check exact model year and gearbox: this EVO kit is not the earlier MQB or DQ250 six-speed version.
