The following represents research I've done on the two batteries required for the V10 TDI. Most place's websites didn't show batteries for the Touareg V10 TDI, and some showed incorrect information. So I visited the various parts stores in person armed with the battery specs and a note pad and found the batteries we need ... even if it involved digging through the battery racks myself.
If you discover any other data or corrections to this data, please feel free to respond - I'm not a battery expert. Also, the prices may change regionally or over time.
