Liqui Moly Dual Clutch Gear Oil 8100 questions
Is Liqui Moly Dual Clutch Gear Oil 8100 BMW approved for DCTF-2?
Liqui Moly states a recommendation, not a BMW approval: it recommends Dual Clutch Gear Oil 8100 for vehicles or assemblies where BMW DCTF-2 or BMW 83 22 2 433 157 is required. The maker's list does not name 83225B3AC81 by number.
What is the difference between Liqui Moly 20044 and 20116?
Both part numbers are Liqui Moly Dual Clutch Gear Oil 8100: 20044 is the 1 liter plastic can and 20116 is the 5 liter plastic canister.
Why do some Liqui Moly 8100 labels not list DCTF-2?
Liqui Moly added DCTF-2 to its list later: an older Liqui Moly product sheet for Dual Clutch Gear Oil 8100 named BMW DCTF-1 and MTF LT-5 only, and the current Liqui Moly product sheet names BMW DCTF-1, DCTF-1+ and DCTF-2.
