What gearbox oem oil part number ?

Don't rule out a well chosen 75W 80 .

There are many oil suppliers the meet vw spec standards,
Just use 75/90 synthetic.

I personally use comma fully or semi synthetic never had a problem,but others will use other stuff,

opie.oils.com will reassure you.

There's oil and then there's oil !

You are far better off choosing one with a recommended VW oil spec but has a lower 40 degree C viscosity that will make cold shifts buttery smooth, when older gearbox oil thickens so deviates from viscosity mm2/s specs causing poor cold selection shifts .

The 40C viscosity on a 75W80 can be almost half that of certain 75W90 , also with less drag it frees up some , power, torque and mpg .

THE best money can buy

Red Line MT-90 Manual Transmission Synth Gearbox Oil MT

Great oil but it's definitely on the thick side from cold as my other car doesn't like 2nd gear till it warms up with MT90.

Red Line MTL is a lighter weight version of MT 90, I'd go for that or some of the superb Fuchs products .

I use this in boxes that feel a bit notchy when cold
