"Lifetime of the car" means different things to manufacturers vs drivers. VW would have you believe that their transmissions are maintenace free and will not need to be serviced for the life of the car. They neglect to mention that they only expect the car to do 100,000km. They're not exactly wrong, in that when the transmission starts to fail you're probably going to write it off rather than drop 5k on a replacement valve body, but if you had serviced it every 60,000km or so, there's no reason that transmission shouldn't be good for 300,000.
