Depends on your gearbox code, some gearboxes have split oil circuits for the hydraulics and the gears. Others have one fluid for both. What is you gearbox code?
The Gearbox is pretty robust, its the same ZF8HP65A used across various models, it doesn't usually fail. The 48V issue is well documented as you have now found out.
The year of S6 you are looking at will most likely be the EA897Evo3 engine with the cast aluminium intake manifold. There isn't much information out there just yet but I wouldn't think it would be less reliable than the Evo2 of which there are a few cars with 200,000 miles.
The reason you can't find your current car is due to engine size. When I took my A5 3.0 TDI (286) in for service that's what they told me. I usually service my own car too but I need the services on record. Last service cost me £450 for an oil and filter change and pollen filter...
Here is a steel one:

For instance if I were to click on your name and try to view posts you made years ago, it wouldn't show up. But it seems like its fixed now so was probably just the server updating.
You don't have ZF8HP65A (8 speed tiptronic), your car has DL382 which is a 7 Speed DSG, this gearbox has even weaker clutches than the older DL501, first step is to remove the tune and flash back to standard calibration.
