I picked up a 2012 TDI Sport+Nav with 148k miles on the odometer a couple weeks ago and when I picked it up, before driving it 8hrs home, I checked the dipstick and found the oil level right where I wanted it and drove it home. That was about 1200 mi ago, and I just got around to my first oil...

First time poster here. This is my second T2 V6. Picked up from a friend in immaculate condition. Had the common limp mode from the faulty wire splice so got it for really cheap. After driving it for the day I got the low oil pressure warning. Comes on then goes away. I’ve read other posts but...

Hello, I want to know if it is needed to change the oil by draining it out , having the new oil clean the transmission by flushing it in and out with a pump and when its totally clean fill it with the totally new oil again . Or just drain it and fill it with the new oil ?

Bought my 2016 Treg TDI about a year ago, and absolutely love it. Living in SF, I park on a lot of steep hills which throws off the digital dipstick (always showing oil very low). I recently found out if you get the engine warm, park on a flat surface, open the oil cap to depressurize the...

Hi guys I’m new to this forum and just bought my first Touareg and I can say Iam so in love with this vehicle. I purchased it with 180,000 kms, but with 0 issues and service records up to date taken care of by someone who was mechanically inclined and took care of it. So I had been driving it...

Drove it off the lot for about 45 minutes and the dealer had closed at this point and the yellow oil light came on.. After reading it could be a sensor or could need oil. The car itself says it needs 1 QT of oil on the vehicle status.. I checked the last oil change it was less than 100 miles...

Hi All, I was driving my parents 2013 150TDI V6 last week and started going up an incline. About half way up the car started to shudder and seemed to loose a little bit of power. Not much time later the engine started to make a distinct clatter or rattle and the power loss got worse. I...

Can anybody tell me where the cheapest place to buy the correct oil and and how much I need to buy for the 8 speed Aisin transmission? I have tried reading many forums and the more I read the more confused I get. Every thread seems to default back to a dsg gearbox. Also is there a specific...

ok...a little background on the subject heading. A couple years ago I had a pre-winter tune-up/inspection. Later that day I was sitting in my vehicle outside of a mall and letting it warm up. I was texting and not paying attention and then I noticed...'why is my cabin filling with smoke'...

During my first 10k I noticed my oil level was low, I'd been towing (after the 6000 break in period). The car had the add 1/2 qt oil light show up. I thought maybe it was towing that caused the issue and added a 1/4 qt of oil b/c I couldn't find the exact spec oil (it was a Castrol...

I have a 2005 V6 Touareg, and I figured it was time to change out the differential oil and transfer case since I'm around 90k miles, and I don't believe it has been done based on my prior service records yet. I was looking into many different options and settled on going with Royal Purple...

Hello Everyone! I've just become the proud owner of an '04 V8 w/72k (Air Suspension, Navi, Blah, Blah) and I just did a google on the reviews of the t-reg and now I am kind of nervous about owning one of these due to the high maintenance costs (HID's, Liquid cooled alternator (wat?), alignment...
