That's not a new tsb though, right? I mean in the manual it states that the car takes gl-3 75w80, and that does not work well in this transmission as clearly evidenced by almost all the X owners. They are supposedly working on a new fluid change and it needs to come out soon.

The TT is dated April 2008 so it seems pretty new to me.

Doubt it. Im not sure what the manual says but this is probably just a reiteration. Then again Im not sure what the purpose of reiterating what the manual says would be. Maybe because some dealers were changing the gear oil to satisfy customers with the shifting problem.

Well, it should be easy to find out. Someone call the dealer and ask, because the manual states that it's DIAQUEEN NEW MULTI GEAR OIL,
75W80 GL-3., I wonder if this is the same, or if it's different.
