Anyone else had a problem after they cut the rubber away from the driveshaft that it doesn't at all fit? Can't really find any videos on any besides older models too see what they did, but I've cut away all of the rubber and tried to place the clamp there and it's a good size to small..

Hello fellow "eggers" I finally got into a Touareg. Specifically a 2008 3.6 v6, lux package. Not too many luxury options - more like a base version. I absolutely enjoy driving the car, however, I have noticed a very loud vibration/humming sound at highway speeds, especially over 40mph, and it...

I drive a 2008 V6 Treg and the driveshaft bearing gave out on me unexpectedly on the freeway yesterday. From these forums I've learned that this is very typical for the V6 anytime after 60,000 miles, but mine hasn't even hit 40,000. The worst part of it is, my car is no longer under warranty as...

I have a 2007.5 V8 FSI Touareg. I do love it. But I just hit 70,000 miles. I drive a lot around remote Colorado and Wyoming. Far from any dealership. Im worried about the driveshaft or "carrier bering". Ive been reading all the posts and I'm not real clear if they have updated this part. It...

Just picked up a "new to me" 05 V8. Called and got the service records, and it shows that the driveshaft was replaced at 38,000mi. While driving it for the first time last night there was a moderately violent noise (loud thud about 10x in a row) and then the "sqeak/flutter" I've read so much...

Hi, I have a 2004 Volkswagen Touareg V8. Over the past couple of months I have brought my vehicle into the VW dealership for the same complaint. While driving at highway speeds, mostly above 65 mph- right when I take my foot off of the gas I hear this 'whiirrrrrrrrrrr er er er er'(lol thats...

I just got a 2006 V6 touareg 34,000 about two month ago. Now all of the sudden it shifting hard from 1 to 2 (up) and 5 to 4 (down). I have read a lot of good info here and I think it might be the value body (that some have mentioned here). So I took it to the place where I bought it and they...

I have a 2004 V6 Treg 75000k, i have owned it for the past 3 years and it's been just fine apart from the odd little problem here and there.... then the dreaded road noise started about 2000k ago and seems to be getting worse. I have read loads of threads, explaining that it is normally the...
