Recently bought a 2011 3.0 Touareg V6 SE TDI.

Never owned a VW before either as I had a Zetec S before this. Loving the car so far, sooooo smooth to drive.

Any tips would be great!

Dont think so !!!

My 1st was a T1 V8 4.2. I bought at 155kms it was sweet and was driven by a woman all is life and maybe a tow vehicle for the weekend ski boat. Out of protectionism i installed the Vortex kit soon after purchase.

My now T2 city runner TDI 3.0 with "JUST A LITTLE MORE TOUQUE" and i feel run as a school pick up was purchased at 94kms 2 years ago. Treated very gently.

Coming to the new owner ............. ME ...... i busted it no probs 2 years later.

Why ...... Touque and driving style !!

Dont worry yours is a diesel and has only 90k on the clock ..... You are good to go my man !! You know stuff yeah ?

I think we would all like to know when it goes as this is a big topic for the main weak spot for the Treg ...... that is unless you have a new shaft in that you dont know about !!

Sure thing! I'll keep you all updated on it. I don't drive it too much as I work away from home so I'm probably putting less than 5k miles a year on it. It's a great commuter and I don't thrash it around so I think I'm pretty safe with driving style.
