I know manual will probably outlast the engine, but how about the dual clutch thing? If serviced properly of course.
Also, can they be reconditioned like old ZF hydraulic gearboxes? Or are they ‘sealed for life’?
I’m not aware of anything published (they’d be risking claims for any car that failed to meet their expected lifespan if they did!)

Just to give you an indicator, mate has a Skoda Superb that he uses for airport runs. It’s coming up to 7 years old and has done near enough THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES with just routine servicing on the dual clutch box
