Every now and then a question is asked on the Syncro site about repairing or “topping up” a VC unit.
At this time there is no means of being able to repair a VC unit.
The fluid is not available, nor is the spec of the fluid known, and lastly the amount of fluid in the VC unit is an exact amount. The quantity and type of fluid in the VC unit determines its “locking” characteristics.
If they show any sign of leaking, get a replacement.

A quick check on ETKA shows that a VC unit is not a “exchange” item so even VAG do not repair them.

there must be some way of finding out from vag or the manufacturer of specs of the vc unit. somebody, somewhere knows who made the fluid and how much of it goes in the vc.
