I recently went to access my online subscription of the eBahn manual for my 2004 V10 only to discover that it is no longer available. When I inquired what options I have to access some form of repair guide (paper or digital) I was told there is no longer nothing Bentley has for my car.

eBahn® 3 and eBahn Pro® software was discontinued in 2017. eBahn® software EOL was 2018. With the end of Microsoft's Support for Windows 7 on Jan 14, 2020, we must discontinue technical software support for eBahn®.

It's kinda funny that I can buy a paper factory repair guide for my 1955 beetle from them but nothing for my 2004.

Has anyone else had this experience and what are others using as a repair guide source for their T1 vintage Touraeg?

What specifically are you looking for? I have VESIS and ELSAwin, can send you PDFs.

Thank you for the generous offer. I was able to find what I needed for now. But from time to time I like to look up information, especially the electrical stuff, and I have another V10 to try and get running this winter.

As a "subscriber" of the service that expired, are you suggesting that this comes as a shock to you? I'm sure you've been notified of the EOL over the last 5 years no?
Nope, never received any notice. I was able to access my online subscription as recently as February when I replaced my glow plug harnesses and cleaned out my intakes.


Also, remind me.... how many '55 Beetles were produced\sold vs '04 v10 TDIs? :unsure:
278,592 world wide.

And BTW, I can get a Bentley manual for my 1957 23 window bus, and only 3514 of those were made world wide.

No idea on the Touaregs. 🧐

So would you like the wiring diagrams? Engine repair manual?
Hi Chew if you could send the link to the current manuals you use to purchase it would be appreciated. I’m in a similar predicament with my 07 V10. I’m currently removing intakes, replacing tandem gasket and potentially replacing power steering rack with speed sensor if you just so happen to have the removal and install to those assemblies.
