What's up with the Homelink?
After waiting 4-1/2 months for the car it is now sitting in my garage, they couldn't get the combination of options/colors I wanted. Had to settle for less accessories as well as a different color interior and exterior than I had originally asked for. The car is very nice, powerful, but my previous car was a 2000 Beetle GLX and it is a little disorienting looking for the clock and the speedometer when switching vehicles.
Amazing!
I purchased (leased) my Toureg in 2004; we are a Volkswagen family. You'll note from my ratings that the car is a performer, fast, solid as a rock, beautifully designed interior and handles like a sports car. It is a beast in New England's torrid winter weather. This is when the car is not at the dealership taking advantage of a very good warranty. I have been to the dealer so many times for so many things that I am totally disgusted and infuriated by Volkswagen's lack of shame. The common reply to my frustrations is: "Well, it's under warranty." I do not recommend this car. It is unfortunate because it could have really been my dream. Instead, it has been a constant nightmare.

Brillance falling short
I'm on my second Touareg as my first was unofficially declared a lemon and swapped with a better Touareg after 3,000 miles (albeit older production model) by VW corporate. Gorgeous vehicle, wonderfully sporty drive in V8 (avoid V6, not enough power) however plagued with problems. Have spent more time in loaner VW cars than I care for; first Treg had electrical issues that could never be solved, this one is back in the shop after 11,000 miles for over a week. Navigation system is weak and not worth the premium, transmission is jerky, battery drain issues create uncertain feelings towards day to day reliability. Once reliability concerns are addressed, this will be a fantastic vehicle.
what next?
allready broken and towed on carrier truck ,got stuck on "park" position.Hope yours is stiil drivinng well.
My First and Last VW Product.
