Newbie from High Peak
Ordered my 3.0 R Line yesterday from VW, Stockport
Over the last 20 years, I've been driving Frontera's `Nautilus' & `Olympus' but needed to upgrade.
After considering all other 4x4 options, thought I'd bite the bullet and splash out on myself
Pick it up next week

Good Morning All.
Joe from North Lincs. Looking at buying my first Touareg, always had VW group cars including golf GTi's from mk1 right through to mk6!
Currently own a 6month old Audi a5 sportback and an 18month old Skoda VRS blackline estate.
I'm looking at changing the VRS as I want more space with a young family and potential to tow. I've been looking closely at facelift models 2007-2009 with the 3.0tdi. Can anybody tell me if the 3.0 definitely changed when the facelift came in? Many I have viewed on autotrader seem to be showing an older version prior to 2009, with 225bhp, 0-60 in 9.9 and 25.9mpg average. many 2009 models seem to show DPF in the title which is then producing 240bhp, 0-60 in 8.3 and 28.5mpg.
Can anybody shed any light on the above? maybe engines codes or similar?
Thanks in advance

If you haven't already read this thread and all the links, do take time to do so:
Buying a used Touareg. What to look for. - myTreg forums
And you should probably ask your engine question on the UK site where members will have deeper knowledge of the UK market offerings.

If you haven't seen this, do take time to read it all - it will probably save you money at some stage and maybe teach you something you didn't know about your car too!

You should post a question like that in a separate thread of your own.
And if you haven't still got a good warranty running, get one!

Look at the Warranty Direct thread on mytreg.com
There are others of course and, whilst folk do complain about WD turning down claims [as do all warranty companies if they can - they're in business to make money after all] we have had success getting several of those decisions overturned.

Cheers. the price I get from them is £1219.00 a year that is a lot of money. I do agree if the motor has to come out that is about a 40 hour job so I have been told anyway.

There's someone in Australia who can do it in just a few hours now.
http://www.mytreg.com/index.php?/topic/36441-v10-engine-and-gearbox-removal-in-35-hours/
VW dealer book time is 30 hours to remove and replace.
You've bought a Touareg with a supercar engine: this guy knows and shows too . . .

No need to apologise at all: an Aussie passport doesn't change anything - you'll always be a Pommie bastard [who probably did exactly the right thing!].
