Car parts vw touareg Videos

+HumbleMechanic I have the 2.8 v6.

+Jon Her which engine does it have?

+Charles DavidThanks Charles, I might take you up on that!

+Kyran Mcgowan Thank you. If you have any questions that I may be able to help answer, let me know. If I have expirience with the issue I may be able to help.

+Charles DavidMan, that repair must cost a fortune! Especially since it involves the tensioners (which I hear are really hard to access). Thank god for those sites like Club Touareg, which provides great resources for stuff like that. And sorry to hear about your accident, hope you make a good recovery.But that sorta thing is one of the biggest things that I'm worried about. Since this car is so over-complicated, it's really hard to diagnose some of the problems.Also, does your car have the Kessy system? If so, has it given you any issues, or does it work as it should?

+Kyran Mcgowan I never knew that much about the Touareg, except the funny name, before I bought it. What an amazingly complicated over engineered tough high performance beautiful machine...It began to make a bad noise on start up and I was all ready to buy a new chain tenioner as I began to suspect that component failed. I bought new plastic pads from Gremany in case it was just the pads and an entire gasket set to replace when I did the job. Then I learned that the bolts that hold the cam caps must be replaced and I was about to make that purchase when I read that this is common issue. And if it showed up at the dealership VW would not pay the dealer for the work as the oil bleeding out of the hydraulic tensioner was simply anoying and dissapears as oil pressure builds up.I don't really know what the reality is right now. I plan on eventually doing something to the tensioner system, however I'm recovering from a bad motorcycle accident and I have lost the ability to complete much of what I have begun.

+Charles DavidMan, you're really getting me pumped! And you're right, owning a Touareg (or any VW for that matter) is all about your mindset going in. As long as you do your homework (as you have) and know what you're getting into, you'll have a great experience!Also, I'm looking at the 4.2 V8 as well. The gas mileage isn't that much worse than the V6, and you get ~100 more HP. What a great engine! Can't wait to get this car.

+Kyran Mcgowan I actually recently got VAG COM. It's really a necesity when you have a VW/Audi product. I'll have to look into the TPMS thing. I have to say my overall impression of the 40 valve V8 Touraeg is nothing short of, " this is the most amazing vehicle ever..."I know the parts can be expensive and the repair procedures extensive at times, but this is a great ride and I would buy it all over again if given the opportunity. Bently Manual, VAG-COM, Patience and an open mind.

+Charles David I'm about to buy one of the same year as well, and I am researching the crap out of it! The good thing is that you can get a mechanic plug a VAG-COM into the car and disable the TPMS (you really don't need it anyways). It's a five minute job to do!Also, the original fuel pumps and blower motors in the 2004 were garbage and wore out prematurely. Since you replaced them with more recent and updated parts, you hopefully shouldn't have a problem with them again.Once all the POS parts on the 2004 fail and are replaced with updated parts, the 2004 is generally a pretty reliable truck! Just seems to have a mid-life crisis as all the older designed parts fail

+StopDropandLOL you know what else gets old and hard?

+Dick Fageroni No, I don't. I mean the cowl drains that like to stick closed when they get old and hard. Just like in the video above from Thomas.

+HumbleMechanic I would assume he means headlights or taillights that take in water.

+StopDropandLOL fish tanks?
