Considering that you need to remove all other clutch packs to get to C & D, kinda does not make sense doing all that work and not replacing them. The clutches them self are very cheap, the labour to remove transmission+ disassemble is not.

Same could be said about the mechatronics valve block. If clutches C & D are gone, given the amount of clutch material that is floating around in the oil. It would be a really good idea to clean out the mechatronics valve block and inspect if any of the valve bores have worn out.

or Maybe they are looking for repeat business.
