Hi all,

I’ve just bought a 2012 V6 TDI with 90,000 miles, and am planning on giving it a good service. As well as the usual items (engine oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, cabin filter) is there anything else I should plan to do?

On my previous BMW 3-Series diesel, I did things like swirl flap removal, EGR valve clean, crankcase breather filter, so wondered if there were any similar jobs I should look to do on the Touareg please?
Any help would be great appreciated! Thanks

Inlet air clean. Mine was as in this thread at 60k. It was running well enough before but after cleaning it was ran even better more power etc. Add transfer box oil to your list.
