I found this, I know it's not the transmission itself but interesting regardless?

I heard they just replace the whole trans if the clutch goes out under warranty and send the one that broke back to Korea for use in R&D
Cool... but I want to do it myself, I just don’t know if f there are any tricks or surprises along the way

Speaking of clutches and replacing them for a DCT... is there a fundamental difference between a DCT clutch pack vs one for a manual transmission?
Would any of the advertised aftermarket clutchs for the Forte GT work with the DCT or are they for the manual transmission only?

The DCT has a dual clutch. The manual has one clutch.

Right, of course lol. Looking into it more, a DCT clutch pack looks somewhat similar to a regular one but yeah, very different set up internally.

There's two, and sometimes three, basic differences
1: A traditional manual clutch is about the size of a dinner plate. With a DCT, one of the clutches looks like a much small plate, and the other clutch is a wide band/ring
2: The pressure plates are of a slightly different construction compared to a traditional manual
3: Situational: There's two types of DCT clutch systems - Dry clutch and Wet clutch. The 7-speed DCT in the GT is a Dry clutch type; the 8-speed found in the i30/Veloster N and a few others is a Wet clutch - the entire clutch/pressure plate assembly lives inside an oil bath, for better heat management
