Best I've Ever Had....
This SUV incredible. Basically, this vehicle is OVER-engineerd and UNDER-priced.
Do Not Buy A Touareg - Ever
This is the most poorly build cars I have ever bought. It spends most of it's time in the VW repair shop where most of the mechanics know little about how to make the necessary repairs. It's been towed numerous times due to electrical issues and recently had it's 4th battery installed. I had new front brakes put on at 50K which cost $1,000, replaced the original tires at 30K, have a back seat that locks, have a $700 issue with the tire pressure system, have another fault light on related to the air suspension, have a xenon headlight that is problematic. My list of issue is never ending. Please don't waste your money on a Touareg. I'll never buy another VW. The Touareg is a LEMON.

Too Much for too Little
This truck is supposedly built on the Porsche Cayenne platform. It is okay, but it came from the factory with alignment problems that VW knew about, ignored, and refused to pay for. This ate up the crappy tires it came equipped with. It also has crappy brakes with poor stopping power despite ABS - I've had many near misses. Buy a car the manufacturer stays behind. There are better options out there for the money.
clueless transmission
from a dead stop car is unsure of what gear to be in and you cannot get a smooth start. if letting off the throttle to make a turn or go over a speed bump, etc., it hesitates after you reapply pressure to the gas pedal, almost like it's thinking. then it suddenly goes into gear and snaps your head back. excellent on the road, horrible around town and in stop and go traffic.
Poor Volkswagen Service
Dublin Volkswagen in Dublin California provides the worst possible point of service in a vehicle with a factory defect and damaged the replacement equipment. The Volkswagen National Customer Service while stating they were empowered to satisfy our complaint has still not returned a call. I would suggest never buying a volkswagen product if you are considering their product line simply POOR POOR Serivce.
