Dq250 mechatronic plug leak

Hi. How common is mechatronic connector/plug to leak fluid out of the pins/harness? Is this a bad sign? Can it be repaired?

There is a breather hole in the middle of the plug.
Unless there are any fault codes or problematic behaviours, just clean it off.
Was the DSG overfilled at last service?
If the proper level procedure isn't used it's easy to over fill.

Hi. No fault codes. I will take the air box out to gain access and use some contact cleaner. Should I unplug it and clean inside it? Thanks.
