Another good report for my faithful DQ250 DSG transmission, glad I went ahead and moved to an annual change for the DSG fluid with my track use. Wear rates have gone up a bit as you would expect with all the tracking/sustained high RPM/high temps (on track temps for the DSG can reach ~260 deg F+) but nothing looks bad...just change it more regularly and send it! Also, with the service kits being free from FCP Euro, not really a big deal to change once/year. It shifts smooth as butter.

Your wear rates went up? Even extrapolating them out to similar mileages, they don't look to be up significantly. I get that it's basically free with LRG, but changing DSG fluid too often can be a problem as well. These things like to have a little bit of friction material swarf in the fluid, helps with clutch engagement.
Yes, just a little...I'm splitting hairs here. With the temps it sees I think 1/year is ok but yes, could probably do every other and be ok too.
