Not particularly. Unless it's leaking profusely or malfunctioning, we seem to find it difficult to "sell" a client on DCT work until after 100k miles. Preconceived notions of "lifetime oil" are hard to break. It looks like most of our invoices for the full DCT jobs show the work orders have been on cars 105k-170k.

Are you guys using the Getrag replacement part, or the BMW supplied part (assumedly might be the same)...?

If you buy the part from BMW it is a Getrag part and box with a BMW label on it. We just order from Getrag (S-tec).

The Jet pump is only a $75 part and no more intensive to install when doing a fluid and filter service. We usually do DCT's as a comprehensive full service job which tends to all of its serviceable components. Since it requires removal from the car and followup software actions, it runs from $2600-2800 at our shop.
