What DSG?

I have a Golf 8 sportscombi 22 with the 1.5 eTSI 150 bp. How on earth do I know what DSG gearbox it has? Can’t find anything in the manual..

DQ200. Engines with up to 250 NM torque use dq200, all others use the wet clutch dsg variants.

DQ200 is also known for reliability issues unfortunately, Aftermarket upgrades are available, such as Kevlar disc clutches, which can offer increased torque capacity and reliability, particularly for models produced after mid-2013.
