I have 2014 3.6 FSI Touareg and done 70000 km. I live in Dubai and the most common problem I observed is the falling of the headliner. And cost to repair in agency is around 12000/- AED which is approx 3300/- USD. The same problem in my friend’s 2013 Touareg. This issue is due to high temperature of Dubai summer. Everything else is so far so good. I love the handling and build quality of the car.

I have a 2011 Touareg V6 TSI 3.6, now 230,000 km on it. Super reliable, no major issues. Now eats half a liter oil every 10,000km but that doesn't really bother me too much, this started at around 150tkm. Rust only on the trunk lid around the third break light as well as around the license plate light. No rust anywhere else. I had to change the front ball joints left and right at 90tkm they started to squeak, now 140tkm later, no squeaking since. I also had an airbag sensor light come up at around 120tkm. The Front sensor was changed for ~100 bucks. Break pads and rotors are more expensive (large heavy car). I am now on my third set of discs and pads (second at 90tkm, third at ~170tkm). At ~220tkm the air intake flap/valve got stuck somehow and the car's idling was higher than usual and started to oscillate. This was so far the most expensive fix at ~$600 (couldn't do it myself). I am very happy so far. Only in the deepest of winter with temperatures below -20C the engine starts very rough and it takes about a minute until it sounds more like an engine again. We will drive our 2011 Touareg until death us depart. I hope this will be around 300-350tkm.

T.Y. I drive the '05 Touareg V8 4.2. I love the vehicle and hope to drive it for many more miles. The steering position sensor and the fan rectifier failed. The gas struts for the rear hatch and window failed after 6 years. The timing belt, tensioner, water pump, alll were replaced @ 80K miles. This was the most expensive aspect of maintenance thus far. Despite the costs, I love driving the Touareg and recommend it highly.

I was fortunate to have a 2012 TDI 3.0 for several years. Terrific car. Handling, ride comfort, fuel economy, performance both on and off road, and in slippery conditions were far better than you might think. Had VW not offered such a substantial buy-back in response to diesel-gate, I’m sure I’d still be driving it and I know I’d still be very satisfied. Truthfully, I’ve owned more than 25 different car, truck, and SUV vehicles. As a frequent air traveler, I’ve rented and extensively operated most top tier brands from America and Europe. The Touareg TDI checked every tic box about as well as anything, and probably is my favorite.
@RedondoBeach2

Your feedback is helpful. Recently I saw a 2016 Touareg with less than 3,000 miles for sale. The owner had the vehicle for a little more than 1 year. The rest of the time, the car sat and could not be sold until VW performed whatever corrective maintenance was necessary in order for the car to be compliant with emissions standards. Interestingly, a car like this having low milage is not unusual because of the emissions issue. Since you're a prior owner, I'm interested in your opinion of the Touareg compared to the Tiguan or Atlas. Of the three vehicles, which do you think is best, and why? Set aside technology in your assessment since we can reasonably assume the Tiguan and Atlas have better technology simply because they're newer. Assess the cars in terms of reliability, performance, drivability, comfort, quality and in whatever other way you think is relevant. Personally, I'm not a fan of the Atlas because it's such a big car. The Tiguan looks like a much cheaper newer version of the Touareg. I like the Touareg more than the other two but, I do like hearing opposing or confirming opinions from experienced owners as long as there's good rationale.

@@RedondoBeach2 The Tiguan has 8 speed ZF transmission, in my humble opinion, this transmission is one of the main reasons that will make you choose the Touareg over the Tiguan dct "dual clutch transmission". Dct is bad for traffic, stop and go & requires more frequent maintenance, and can have issues. If the Tiguan had a normal transmission, I'd choose it over Touareg if you don't need a big car.

Similar story here with my 2011 TDI in that it served me very well and I abandoned it at the altar of Diesel Buy back. Regretted that decision and just purchased a 2016 with 23,000 miles. Chose to go with the TDI over the V6 as the Tiguan's 4 cylinder motor was deemed insufficient for the size vehicle (stealership mechanic) and the transmission. The obvious lack of a diesel motor in the Atlas and not wanting the 4 banger nor the often dissed V6 was also a put off for purchasing a T-Reg with the gas V-6. Operation of the V-6 Gasser over 100K miles, even at the lower MPG average, is a bit cheaper than diesel but, the reputation of the diesel motor's reliability was the deciding factor.
@c5back9
@c5back9 3 года назад
@@RedondoBeach2: I’ll respond to your request by 1st advising that I have limited experience with the Tiguan apart from what I hear from two friends who both own one. They love them, but neither had a Touareg previously as a basis for comparison. I’ve had an opportunity to operate the Tiguan a couple of times and like it, but it in no way is the vehicle the Touareg is, and certainly not the Touareg TDI. I prefer the size of the Touareg, and like others, feel like the Atlas is too large. Finding adequate parking places for the Atlas is often a challenge as it feels as big as a full size Chevrolet Tahoe. Try finding a parking place for one of those monsters on a regular basis and you’ll quickly understand why theTouareg is a better alternative. The Touareg provides a better ride than Tiguan too. As for tech on the Atlas and Tiguan, it’s nice until it breaks or software glitches start surfacing. But in all candor, to give you a clue of my way of thinking about most things, I still love 1970s era high fidelity audio equipment too because not only does analog sound better to my ear, I find it to be largely bulletproof and it provides all I want or need. I guess this makes me a bit of an old school type. As such the 2011-2015 era Touareg comes with all the tech I’ll ever want or need and even a bit more. The 3.0TDI is the way to go IMHO as it’s as close to perfection as an internal combustion engine has ever been despite all the government mandated pollution systems crammed in. For me, safety is always important too, and given the size, heft, rigidity and stout construction of the T-reg, I always felt like I’d be in better shape than the other guy if ever unluckily enough to collide with someone. T-reg is the way to go I’m my opinion.

@@c5back9 Great feedback! Thank you, sir! I continue to drive my 2004 VW GTI VR6 6-speed manual. I'm the original owner. The car has a lot of sentimental value because I have driven it in Europe, Asia and North America. The car has 140K miles and still has the original clutch and original timing chain. I'll change both soon, just as preventative maintenance. The car is worth a lot less than the cost of these parts and others to assure the car will continue to be road worthy for another 100K, but my view is that it will be money well spent. I'd like to take the car on a cross country road trip in a year or two. The said, yes, the T-reg is still an interest. All of your feedback is great but I find it most interesting that the diesel is the best alternative. I've never owned a diesel but I'm not opposed to the idea. They're generally rock solid engines with plenty of power, torque and fuel economy. The fact that the diesels were at the center of the VW scandal possibly makes these cars an interesting conversation piece. I suppose my only concern might be the availability of parts for the diesel. I'm unsure how many of the diesels involved int he scandal were permanently retired. If that did happen, the ones that remain on the road, post VW modifications to meet U.S regulations, could be difficult to service, but I don't know. One more question I should have asked is; do owners have an opinion of the T-reg vs the Porsche Cayenne? I've heard the Cayenne is more powerful. I'm guessing it's more luxurious because of the Porsche name brand but possibly more expensive to maintain for the same reason. Reliability and power are important to me. Cost is a secondary factor but still somewhat important. If or when I buy one of these cars, I believe I'll look for one that came off the assembly line in the last year of production, one that has the fewest number of miles I can find. If I like it and it proves to be as reliable as my GTI, I may keep it forever.

Possible high pressure fuel pump issues with the 3.0 tdi. Mostly a US problem. Usually can be avoided by using the best quality diesel fuel you can get, using a fuel additive, and never running the tank too low.

bough a late 2013 model couple of yrs ago, 3.0tdi version, had 194k. km. extremely comfortable family suv, decent reliability. got 20k km on it. except regular maintenance, fuel injectors went out for no apparent reason, fuel pump was ok although i can see it was replaced at some point. started using fuel additives. air suspension still hold, no electrical issues. rattling timing chain is one of the most debated components of the car. i still have my original one. what i know from my research, spoke with 3 mechanics as well, rattling doesn’t necessarily mean you need to replace chain. and tensioners. if car wasnt used for some time, it’s not uncommon that the tensioners aren’t oilded properly at cold start. it’s generally accepted 2-3sec initial rattle to be the norm. even if replaced, the problem would occur sooner than you think. hpfp should be replaced preventively after max 200k. it’s cheaper to combine with the changing of timing chain mechanism. change filters on 10k km intervals, esp the air filter since it has design flaw, the drains of it arr easily clogged and engine might take a sip of water which’s bad news.

air suspension repairs are just as expensive on the GX. It's not even an option on the 4Runner.

The last Touareg I had was 2006 v8 gas . Basic compared to the tdi engine . So I’m not sure if I go into limp mode or when I go to a car wash or it rains or if I let diesel get below 1/4 tank which I’ve done only 2ce my whole balance of the car seems sluggish and unresponsive ?

This is a good review in my opinion. I have a MY2017 version Diesel TDI. With a caravan, the optional Air Suspension's ability to be height-adjusted using buttons at the rear is useful. We have had little to complain about although the engine started to use more oil at 60,000km. (.75 litres of oil per 15,000km) When I bought it new, the VW salesman assured me SatNav maps could be downloaded free! However when I had a recent service at the dealership where I bought the car, I was told it would cost about $900 for the new maps and firmware for the RNS850. This made me very angry ...

We have the 2014 R-Line V6 Diesel Auto. It is a very comfortable, economical car, but for towing doesn't compare with our old Hyundai Terracan, which never got stuck. The VW failed to tow an empty horse trailer off a wet field! The brakes pads, which I recently changed were a fraction of the price that you list. Mintex were what I used. Maybe that was due to buying them in the UK rather than Europe. They didn't come with the brake wear indicator wiring as standard. That was about another €10 per wheel. It is quiet and the acceleration is deceptive. Put it into Sport mode and it is even faster.

@@jimo680 I would have a look at several VW forums, and ask the question there. We probably won't keep it that long, but I'd expect it to do at least 300,000 miles without major problems. The same engine is in the Audi Q series, so the same question could be posed there. However, if I were looking to buy another vehicle of the type, I'd go back to Hyundai. Twice the vehicle for half the money. I'm not anti VW. This is the fourth VW we've owned. It's just that Hyundai have been consistently good over the past 20 years. My father in law has had several of their 4 x 4's in that time.

@differentcarreview-dcr
@differentcarreview-dcr 6 лет назад
when it comes to engines then the BMW E92/93 is a good / very good choice but only the models with the 6 cylinder engines made to 2007 - they have the N52 engine code, the other petrol engines in this car do have direct injection-so issues with the injectors, high pressure fuel pumps can occur + the high mileage examples will have carbon build up the A5-yes it has those "problematic" 1.8 TFSI, 2.0 TFSI 4 cylinder engines - oil consumption can be a big problem-mainly in cars made to 2012+the usual direct injection stuff: faulty injectors, high pressure fuel pumps + the high mileage examples-carbon build up so in this case the 3.2 FSI, or the 3.0 TFSI is a better choice, although these are also direct injection engines, but they don't have problems with excessive oil consumption the Mercedes C class W204 actually has pretty reliable petrol engines - and in this case it's better to choose the 4 cylinder engines since the V6 engines made to 2008 had some issues with the timing chains, on the other side, from the 4 cylinder engines it's better to choose those which are equipped with kompressor not turbocharger, since those with the turbocharger do have again direct injection in all of these cars check all the usual stuff and pay attention to the rattling noise at cold start which can indicate worn timing chain / chain tensioner

@differentcarreview-dcr
@differentcarreview-dcr 5 лет назад
this depends on various things first of all what is the mileage of the car and how did the previous owner used it but generally speaking - more often worn glow plugs, you have to change the battery earlier, clogged DPF filter, clogged EGR, bigger carbon build up, and oil contamination with fuel-since the car will a lot of times try to increase the exhaust temperature to burn out the DPF filter but you can at least minimize these issues by changing the oil much earlier- after 8 000 - 10 000 km, and at least occasionally - at least twice / month go on a longer journey - 50 - 100 km where you will redline the warmed up engine a couple of times

Firstly, all your tires and wheels need to be balanced at the tire shop. When the tires are off check the brake disc bolts, they should be at the lowest hole. While putting your tires on the bolts that hold the tire should be torqued to 180Nm. That's all.

EGR valves and high pressure fuel pumps are things that can fail on any modern diesel engine. The timing chains can fail but this usually doesn't happen until 500k kms, and this can be extended with regular oil changes. You have a BMW; all these things are known to fail on BMW diesel engines as well. Timing chains especially are a huge problem on BMW diesels. I would know because I've had timing chain issues in a 5-Series with an N57 diesel engine.

Great car, no problems to be concerned with. Quiet, smooth, powerful, reliable, and safe. Looks like a newish car. I average 8l per 100km. Over 1000km to a 80l tank . Predominantly highway driving. Have done some mild off road, sand driving, no problems. Wouldn’t recommend getting too adventurous. Fantastic family wagon, and a bargain second hand.

Very good review as always! We happened to own one of these SUVs with air suspension, we are the second owners of it, it has good maintenance history, we treat it properly, and right now, at 7 years old (2011) it still drives very nicely, even that there are around 206k km on the clock. But I have managed to convince my father to change the oil in the gearbox right now. At this time, it still shifts smoothly, without hesitation or strange noise, but at this mileage, could it be too late or not? Looking forward to your response!
@differentcarreview-dcr

I would definitely recommend to change that oil and it's also important to change it with the filter - some of the mechanics simply just drain the oil without changing the filter which is obviously not good, and make sure you put only the original-genuine VW oil in it

@differentcarreview-dcr
@differentcarreview-dcr 2 года назад
I would choose the 3.0 - 176 kw model with the CASA engine code: -the bad thing is that it was available only in the first year of production, -the next bad thing is the high pressure fuel pump - HPFP which will fail but nobody knows when exactly - mostly depends on the fuel quality so it can easily withstand 300 000 km - 400 000 km on good quality fuel, but on bad quality fuel it can fail easily at 200 000 km or earlier (if it fails then it will destroy all 6 injectors too) so its good to replace it even preventively if you want to be on the safe side -other than this, the engine itself can withstand more than 500 000 km (I had a Q7 with this engine with 500 000 km - check out the video on my channel) The newer 180kw 3.0 tdi engines up to 2014 are still kind of ok, but: -the timing chain mechanism is weaker so you have to be ready to remove the engine and replace it even at 200 000 km/occasionally earlier (the chain mechanism can be of course worn on the 176 kw engines too but here it can usually last much longer than on these newer 180 kw models) -then you have to be ready for coolant leaks on top of the engine + oil leaks can appear more often too -and of course the injectors and hpfp can fail here too Engines from 2015 are equipped with adblue so thats another thing which can fail + there are again other issues and to be honest I would not recommend these newest engines unless its a low mileage car The 4.2 tdi is not bad and its powerful enough, but: -it has the same HPFP which can fail and destroy the injectors -you got +2 more injectors -and you got 2 turbochargers on the side of the engine (to replace them you have to remove the whole engine) -the chain here will usually last longer than on the 180kw V6 tdi so thats good, but its not gonna last forever which means that at 300 000 - 350 000 km you should be ready to replace it since its gonna be worn +1thing which is not mentioned in the video is the steering lock failure which starts to be common on these cars
