Worrying they didn’t know your TCR had an LSD. Get it in writing they will clean the filter and ask for a picture.

As removing the pump is not part of the official documented procedure for a diff oil change your VW dealer will be reluctant to do it, unless your dealer is accommodating and agrees to do it.

Probably adding the cost of a fill plug, a drain plug and the 2 pump "O" rings to the bill too.

I wonder how many do the pump relearn procedure too??

The reason I got a decent local independent to do mine.

Thanks Madstaff again
As they've literally just rung to say car all done, I'll check to see if they've charged me for those items!

Ours was done yesterday at an independent -VAG Autocare services, I decided to move away from the main dealers.
I asked for the pump to be removed to clean the gauze, as well as the fluid change.

This was taken before the gauze was wiped, as you can see it's pretty clean.
This is at 3 yrs, 2 months old, 17,100 miles.
