From the Philippines here. I own a 2004 3.2 vr6 gasoline touareg. It had a lot of issues: vaccum tubes, purge valve, air cleaner connecting pipe, broken head light backets, valve cover oil leak, driver side door lock and power window mechanism, headlight bulbs, outer tail lights, worn out rotors and brake pads. All filters and fluids replaced. Fan belt replaced. Space saver tire replaced with conventional tire. After all is said and done, touareg is a confortable, sturdy and safe car. It's different from the mainstream SUV's. Just maintain it properly and it will serve you well.
For #10...the driver seat gets moved automatically forward when you start the car, therefore the leg space for passengers in the back gets to normal level. And for #2, my 2008 V6 has memory seats. So yes, there is an upper trim level, including dynaudio, central and rear blocking differential.
The only things I hate about my 05 V8: High price tag. High maintenance costs and 14mpg. Everything else, I love. It is powerful, solid, comfortable, good towing up to 7000lbs and doing light off-road trips. I may do the dif. and transmission fluid soon. Coming up on 132K and she's still running well.
I definitely agree with you on the lack of memory function for the driving seat, I am twice as big as my wife, it's a total pain having to readjust the seat all the time. Not mad on the hand break either, steering is a bit wishy washy if I were being honest but other than that it's great. Early models had exceptional build quality.
Hello Josh...I stumbled by accident on your channel and now it's quickly becoming my favorite. Although I live half way across the world from you (by the way, I've lived in Utah before so it's really nice to see the familiar scenery when you're out and about) but I also have a 2005 and a 2009 Touareg. Both have the V6 engine, the T1 has the older, weaker 3.2, but the T2 has the much better 3.6 FSI, which for my purposes makes me not need a V8. I've got a really strong love\hate relationship with my Touaregs, and this ties into the subject of this video. I agree with some of your points, and have some of my own that usually drive me nuts. These are: 1. Headlights: apart from the fact that they're not that bright, to remove and replace them is craziest thing I've ever seen. What would have been the problem with using a few screws to attach them to the body, like other cars? Oh no, VW engineers had to smoke something unmentionable to device some convoluted mechanism that requires having a mounting bracket with guides and little plastic bits that can easily break and a lock, just to hold the headlight. On the T2 (2nd gen) it's marginally easier, but on T1's it's so horrendous that it requires a special tool to turn some pin on the mounting bracket. This pin, of course, is mounted on a part of the bracket so thin that it easily breaks, so now your headlight won't lock or release, so you have to remove the bumper to replace the stupid thing. 2. Rear hatch struts: yet another brilliant engineering feat by the brilliant VW engineers who decided to tuck the rear hatch struts between the headliner and the roof, just to make it as complicated as possible. In most SUVs and station-wagons, you pop the hatch, hold it open with something, remove the struts which are right there in front of you, and put in the new ones. Simple. Try replacing the Touareg's rear hatch struts (T1 & T2). They had to hide them in the roof, so you have to disassemble half the headliner and various trim pieces in the vicinity thereof just to find out that you will still shred your hands trying to get to them. 3. Driver door handle and main window switch: Why VW, WHY? In order to replace both of those you will, of course, need to remove the door panel and disassemble various parts. And if the plastic and foam that holds the door handle has pretty much disintegrated like on my T1, you have no choice but to either live without a door handle, or replace the whole panel. One thing you mentioned regarding the spare tire: who in their right mind gives you a deflated spare tire, then makes the air pump and optional extra?! Headliners, yup, on both my Tregs. I think the T1's seats were closely related to those on the Cayenne of the same generation so maybe that's why they are more comfortable. T2's split a bit more further away from the Cayenne. Sorry for the long rant. I really enjoy watching your videos on the Touaregs, and I do love these cars a lot that I don't think I'll get rid of my T2 as long as it stays alive. The T1 however is going soon, hopefully.
I am with you. Headlights are surprisingly useless. Rear hatch. All of it. They make the car nicer in little ways but is why German cars have a bad reputation. Complexity brings more problems. If I was a man without a soul a Toyota Corolla would look might fine.
@@spottedeuros1529 I couldn't think of a better reason why we love our VW's, and BMW's and Mercedes and Audis. And don't think I wasn't advised to buy a "reliable Corolla" before. I just say I'm allergic ;-P
I have to agree with Cam Jones, most if not all gripes here are because its a used Touareg but no mechanical issues mentioned. I have a 2008 TDI and will agree on the headlights, they suck BUT its a great vehicle if you maintain it and most of the gripes can be fixed even the seats.
Yes, I love my Touareg. It's has been great. The Touareg 2 has better headlights than the earlier ones if you can imagine that. Only thing that makes it better are some really bright fog lights.
I think a majority of these are just picking through a used car that you specifically purchased... The DEF can be done with no spill (check humble mechanics video) air compressor is missing since it's used, and majority of the gripes are because it's used..majority can be fixed..
Just bought a buyback '14 JSW TDI 6M with 16,400 miles. Best car ever! How about a tape measure to check size on the seats? Just a suggestion. Thx for the vid. Subscribed. Good luck sir.
2011s have more interior room. You have base model wheel and tire combo from Audi. They look ugly, sorry. For your backup camera you have a fault in the system, have it diagnosed and fixed. Your lighting, if it’s not hid that’s your issue along with the fact your lights are fogged. Yes your missing the air pump. If you take your time you won’t make a mess with your adblue. You’ve had a water leak and that’s why the headliner has dropped. Get it fixed. Memory seats are optional on all models of the Touareg. It was not a standard feature. Your older Touareg is a higher trim level then your diesel.
@@adasmithy dude I am crazy about maintenance. The one we had was a piece of 💩 , if you look them up you will find thousands of people not satisfied with that German engineering crap. Volkswagen of any type is one of the worst vehicles you can by. For that matter any German car is overpriced 💩. I bough my wife a nice Chevy suv since we got rid of that money pit and have been very satisfied. How does 3500$ sound to you for a alternator. That’s what it cost to change one on the toureag. Where I can change one myself on a Tahoe for about 200$

@@rileyshane78 I am a vw tech. Cared for this one since new. Only have had to replace filters and brakes and one injector. No electrical problems. No gremlins and no issues with the driveshaft. Sorry you got a bad one all the ones I've worked on, that return to me regularly, haven't had any issues. And I work on quite a few ranging from low mileage to my own that's 400k
The worst thing about the spacesaver tire is that the full size tire still has to go somewhere! It can't fit where the space saver came out so if you are fully loaded some will have a dirt tire on their lap. Or on your tan carpets.
Wilhelm Haupt very true. No where to put that dirty wheel. I didn’t think about that. Also I always wonder how big the wheel will be compared to the other wheels. Especially with my 2005 that I use to have oversize tires on. That little donut wouldn’t even come close to the same size.
Thanks for the video, I can relate so some of the issues you mention... Light carpets in the trunk and cabin, solved by getting a boot liner. Still trying to source similar mats you have for the cabin. Fortunately my Touareg has the wheel carrier on the back, so no worries about space saver spare tyre for me.
Where did you get your boot liner? I haven't gotten one because I haven't found one that slopes down by the door for the Tdi boot. Most of them seem completely flat. Iv'e seen those wheel carriers on Porsche Cayennes but never a Touareg. I'm sure it's the same thing.
We have a place here in South Africa called Afriboot where I got my trunk liner, www.afriboot.co.za The Touaregs in SA appear to have flat floors, I haven't seen any with the little ramp at the back though. I will search around a bit and let you know if I manage to find one. We have quite a few Touaregs here with the spare wheel carrier, it was an optional extra. Not having a spare wheel in the trunk and air suspension, makes for extra luggage space beneath the board.
here are the two things i hate about my touareg TDI- 1. diesel exhaust leaks from turbo, egr, and flex pipe- repair cost $4k. 2. failure of centre rubber around bearing on driveshaft - happened on a long trip to Canyon Lands from Canada on a holiday weekend. non repairable part meant new drive shaft (VW lingo- propeller shaft) $1700. make sure you catch it before it goes (makes odd squealing noise) and you can find a more economical fix and avoid buying a VW propeller shaft.
d h I’ve heard of the older Touaregs having the drive shaft issues. I’ll have to check mine out. My exhaust seems to be okay but it’s surprising how much it smells like a diesel. Much more than the 2.0 Tdis.
@@spottedeuros1529 mine is a 2009 tdi with 260kms (161k miles). strong diesel smell starts in cold weather and gets progressively worse. on the highway you don't notice it but as soon as you get in stop and go traffic it can become very noticeable. there is better fixes for the driveshaft but when you are in Canyon Lands Needles District on a long weekend and the propeller shaft starts banging against the floor... its a long slow drive to get help. both these issues happened about 120k miles... have been relatively trouble free since.
Mam touareg z 2009. Tez mam problem z fotelami elektrycznymi bez pamięci. Jak zona jezdzi to ustawienia robi pod siebie pozniej ja jeżdżę i robie ustawienia pod siebie i ciężko jest ustawic tak samo jak bylo wczesniej. I teraz moje pytanie,czy jak bym włożył fotele z pamiecia czy to będzie działać. Albo zamienić panel z pamięcią lub wyposażyć w jakis sterownik?? Jak ktos ma pojecie bede bardzo wdzięczny. Pozdrawiam z Polski . Fajny kanał i z przyjemnoscia sie go oglada.
Yankee Doodle nice. Could be a good idea. I’m not crazy about those warranties. They always seem to try and get out of paying for stuff. I hate having to fight the dealer every time. However it can be good peace of mind.
#11:❗the hight between seat and head is not suitable for tall person. Whenever I enter to set down on the driver seat, my head hit the arch of the door 🙆. The reason is that the battery is under the driver seat 😡
It is a Trim Level issue. Your older Treg has air suspension, thus is more likely the Top Trim level. The TDi simply is NOT. I have a 2010 TDi that is Top Trim Level with air suspension and has more seat controls and memory. Plus, this is my second 2010 TDi and my old one, Pre-Dieselgate , did NOT have air suspension. I do not think it had memory seats either. So, trim level is a solution. Sadly only 2010 had air suspension of the Treg 2 so far that I have found in the TDi searches and only a hand full had that HIGH trim level because it was a $15,995 upgrade option in 2010.
Lmao I like that video,I like the flat tier made me laugh :D.Foggy lights I bet you can sand it and polish/wax.The backup cam is a good one,but if it works only sometimes then It's true,it sucks :D.My touareg don't even have backup cam,but I kinda don't miss it.I have the black interior with gray trims,looks so good and I don't like creamy interiors but it's just me.That headliner thing looks bad :/ but I hope u can fix some things to make it better 👍.I have a question for you,do you know where would I get Touareg mats for my touareg?I have some very bad ones,they are so small and they are not even a rubber ones.Hope u get 1000 sub's mate,I'm supporting u all the way.
TrueHipHop Estonia Thanks for the support man! Yea I still need to fix the windshield and the headliner. I like the tab seats in the Touareg because they are more on the white than creme side. I bet you can find some rubber mats on eBay. Just look for some used oem mats. They will fit the best and will clip in. Just pay attention to the clip shape. Some are oval and some are circles.
Looks like urea (adblue) got spilled all over the place in the trunk. The VW adblue containers allow filling without spilling a drop. I always have VW do it. Incase you don't know, VW has committed to refilling the adblue for the life of the car as part of the dieselgate settlement.
@@spottedeuros1529 The dealer didn't seem to be aware of that when I went in. It is on the recall information card in your glove box. The dealer fills out a warranty claim with VW.
Almost there. Thanks for watching. T1 feel a little more outdated. My 2009 really doesn’t feel that old. The other big thing is the engine options. The V6 Tdi is the best engine option you can get in the Touareg in my opinion.
Haha that's a me problem not a Touareg problem. I think I'll wait until after winter. The main highway where I live is under construction and has been causing a ton of broken windshields. I fear that I'll fix it and then it will break a week later.
@@spottedeuros1529 Im looking into getting started in overlanding in a older model crossover. I was stuck on the Subaru Outback or Forrester, I never heard of the Touareg until recently, now I can't make up my mind. Thanks for adding to my confusion. I dont think either is a bad choice though.
Check out some of my other videos on the older Touareg i had. 2005 Touareg V8 air suspension with front, center and rear lockers. A lot more capable off-road than the Tdi Touareg I have now.
@@spottedeuros1529 I watched all of them, and I'm leaning heavy on the Touareg only if I can get it with the air suspension system, or a late model Forester XT.
Wheel size: agreed, they should be bigger. Backup camera thing: maybe a software issue. Try updating the firmware of the unit. Headlights: you'd need to polish them, clean the lenses from the back and have the bulbs replaced (they get a lot dimmer with age), and you most likely would have a great light output. Spare tire: models with standard suspension come with a compressor included - your is missing. There's not compressor in the trunk of air suspension models, because the spare tire can be inflated from the air suspension air tank. Adblue fill port: it's moved to the regular fuel gas door on later models. It was an afterthought for this generation (earlier model years of the same didn't have AdBlue yet), and that's why it's so cumbersome. Headlining: it's most likely sagging because you had water ingress in the back because of clogged drain holes behind the plastic covers at the back door hinges. Memory seats: they were definitely an option since 2003 - some Touaregs have it, others don't. Seats: can't say anything about them, I liked my pre-FL seats just like the FL seats. Anyway, great video!
Hmm I should look into that. I’ve tried to find something for the trunk but couldn’t really find anything that seems to work with the Tdi. It slopes down at the end by the door and most of them didn’t seem to account for that.
Hey man - love your vids! Do me a "flavor" - since you don't have air suspension, why not sell me that air pump hose and carrier that you had sitting on your passenger seat? I can't find one anywhere! [08 V8 FSI]
Kiss your carpet goodbye mate. AdBlue might only be urea and water but it eats clothes and stuffs paint off not cleaned immediately. This video a few months old so I guess you know this now ? 😜
Coming up on 16 years w. my Touareg V8. I still like it. I just accept the cheap plastic bits that fall off and the poor engine layout which was partially remedied in later model years.
If you sell these pieces of crap 💩 you should be ashamed of yourself. That whole trunk will fill up with water and along with the front of the car along with a million other problems those junk cars have
WV needs to go out of business. They don't know how to make cars. WV are boring inside and outside the appearance sucks and cost to much to maintain and their not even good cars 👎

Hi, can i have a question ? When you unlock the Touareg at night, will the headlights switch on for a while ? (Welcome light effect) thanks :)
It does have the feature but I have never gotten it working right
It is a Trim Level issue. Your older Treg has air suspension, thus is more likely the Top Trim level. The TDi simply is NOT. I have a 2010 TDi that is Top Trim Level with air suspension and has more seat controls and memory. Plus, this is my second 2010 TDi and my old one, Pre-Dieselgate , did NOT have air suspension. I do not think it had memory seats either. So, trim level is a solution. Sadly only 2010 had air suspension of the Treg 2 so far that I have found in the TDi searches and only a hand full had that HIGH trim level because it was a $15,995 upgrade option in 2010.
Lmao I like that video,I like the flat tier made me laugh :D.Foggy lights I bet you can sand it and polish/wax.The backup cam is a good one,but if it works only sometimes then It's true,it sucks :D.My touareg don't even have backup cam,but I kinda don't miss it.I have the black interior with gray trims,looks so good and I don't like creamy interiors but it's just me.That headliner thing looks bad :/ but I hope u can fix some things to make it better 👍.I have a question for you,do you know where would I get Touareg mats for my touareg?I have some very bad ones,they are so small and they are not even a rubber ones.Hope u get 1000 sub's mate,I'm supporting u all the way.
TrueHipHop Estonia Thanks for the support man! Yea I still need to fix the windshield and the headliner. I like the tab seats in the Touareg because they are more on the white than creme side.
I bet you can find some rubber mats on eBay. Just look for some used oem mats. They will fit the best and will clip in. Just pay attention to the clip shape. Some are oval and some are circles.
Looks like urea (adblue) got spilled all over the place in the trunk. The VW adblue containers allow filling without spilling a drop. I always have VW do it. Incase you don't know, VW has committed to refilling the adblue for the life of the car as part of the dieselgate settlement.
Good to know. I didn't know that. May find something to fix while they are refilling it. haha
@@spottedeuros1529 The dealer didn't seem to be aware of that when I went in. It is on the recall information card in your glove box. The dealer fills out a warranty claim with VW.
My 08 T2 v10 has memory seats on both sides.
William Burns nice. Must only be available on the top trim level.
William Burns my 07 also has memory on both sides
My 08 V8 has seat memory on just the drivers side.
I like your content. How do you compare the Gen I Touareg to the Gen II I saw that you had both.
Also congrats on the almost 2k subscribers.
Almost there. Thanks for watching. T1 feel a little more outdated. My 2009 really doesn’t feel that old. The other big thing is the engine options. The V6 Tdi is the best engine option you can get in the Touareg in my opinion.
Nice vid man. I have TDI, secod generation with memory seats on both sides. Your treg just do not have high end trim level.
Dang. haha
I had the roof leak thing on my 2004 Cayenne S (same car basically) and they replaced the headliner and drains. $8500.00
Why you don't like the v8 motor?
I like the Tdi a lot more.
@@spottedeuros1529 in terms of performance? Economy? What exactly?
I'm asking because I'm about to buy one. So your tips will help me a lot

what went wrong with the touareg v8.
Timing tensioner went bad
Im late bro but i feel you 100% got a 2006 touareg
No mechanical complaints just what you should have known when you purchased a smaller vehicle..
The broken windshield didn't make the list?
Haha that's a me problem not a Touareg problem. I think I'll wait until after winter. The main highway where I live is under construction and has been causing a ton of broken windshields. I fear that I'll fix it and then it will break a week later.
10 months later, bet that adblue has already started corroding that trunk.
after a few seconds i thought: do you smoke weed or somethin?
mhhhh
The things you hate makes me want this ride even more. You don't mention anything about any breakdowns.
I love this Touareg and I haven’t had any breakdowns!
@@spottedeuros1529 Im looking into getting started in overlanding in a older model crossover. I was stuck on the Subaru Outback or Forrester, I never heard of the Touareg until recently, now I can't make up my mind. Thanks for adding to my confusion. I dont think either is a bad choice though.
Check out some of my other videos on the older Touareg i had. 2005 Touareg V8 air suspension with front, center and rear lockers. A lot more capable off-road than the Tdi Touareg I have now.
@@spottedeuros1529 I watched all of them, and I'm leaning heavy on the Touareg only if I can get it with the air suspension system, or a late model Forester XT.
Wheel size: agreed, they should be bigger. Backup camera thing: maybe a software issue. Try updating the firmware of the unit. Headlights: you'd need to polish them, clean the lenses from the back and have the bulbs replaced (they get a lot dimmer with age), and you most likely would have a great light output. Spare tire: models with standard suspension come with a compressor included - your is missing. There's not compressor in the trunk of air suspension models, because the spare tire can be inflated from the air suspension air tank. Adblue fill port: it's moved to the regular fuel gas door on later models. It was an afterthought for this generation (earlier model years of the same didn't have AdBlue yet), and that's why it's so cumbersome. Headlining: it's most likely sagging because you had water ingress in the back because of clogged drain holes behind the plastic covers at the back door hinges. Memory seats: they were definitely an option since 2003 - some Touaregs have it, others don't. Seats: can't say anything about them, I liked my pre-FL seats just like the FL seats. Anyway, great video!
Thanks for all he info!
when was addblue but in the door because I have a 2012 and its in the trunk also

I hate myself for watching this video to the end.
I hope you get your 1000, Josh! Two weeks but only 52 to go!
Thanks for the support! I appreciate it. Make that 51 to go!
Roll in my 01 beetle then talk to me about headlights😂😂
I am not sure that any headlight can be worst than the Touaregs.
I have an '05 Touareg, thankfully it doesn't have the saggy headlighner issue. My theory is the saggy headliner is due to humid climates.
I don't know. I have seen Touaregs and other vws come from all over with bad headliners.
Don’t like Touareg, buy Russian Lada you’ll be happy with it...

Pov video whit blackbeast?
Exactly.
VW boot liner made by weathertech called the muddy buddy in black $95 will solve one of your dislikes.
Hmm I should look into that. I’ve tried to find something for the trunk but couldn’t really find anything that seems to work with the Tdi. It slopes down at the end by the door and most of them didn’t seem to account for that.

Hey man - love your vids! Do me a "flavor" - since you don't have air suspension, why not sell me that air pump hose and carrier that you had sitting on your passenger seat? I can't find one anywhere! [08 V8 FSI]
They are impossible to find. That v8 Touareg has the air suspension just not a functional engine.

Kiss your carpet goodbye mate. AdBlue might only be urea and water but it eats clothes and stuffs paint off not cleaned immediately. This video a few months old so I guess you know this now ? 😜
noooooooo
I don't know a person that has bought a VW and liked it passed 3 yrs
Coming up on 16 years w. my Touareg V8. I still like it. I just accept the cheap plastic bits that fall off and the poor engine layout which was partially remedied in later model years.

If you sell these pieces of crap 💩 you should be ashamed of yourself. That whole trunk will fill up with water and along with the front of the car along with a million other problems those junk cars have
Seriously. Carpet colour. Do me a favour.

WV needs to go out of business. They don't know how to make cars. WV are boring inside and outside the appearance sucks and cost to much to maintain and their not even good cars 👎
VW to me are just a bad version of Audi 😒
Largest car manufacturer in the world, needs to go out of business? Good luck with that.
