Default PDK clutch fluid

I understand the PDK clutch fluid is a 60k mile service item. But, I am assuming in a track or racing application the interval is much smaller. Is there a DYI for this service? I am being told it takes a PIWIS to determine the proper level and at that it's a multistep process. That either makes it a dealer only service and that is like $140 just to hook it up to the computer. What are others doing?

Thanks,

two services. the wet clutch side, which is dealer serviced using PIWIS. the gear side, which includes diff can be DIY. my car is tracked primarily. 8400 miles, i've serviced it twice. not saying that is the proper interval, but a few hundie on service beats tens of thousands on a new PDK...

I'd like to change the 2 fluids in my PDK but it's a dealer service type of deal. I was quoted $460 for complete PDK fluids change.

The PDK clutch fluid change is a dealer only service but changing the diff oil is pretty easy. The $460 sounds like for both.
