Was really curious what engine holds the major share ?
 
Discussion starter · #3 ·
Yeah! Guess V6 and V8's are popular!
 
I voted for v6, because I have a TDv6. Would it have made sense to seperate the diesel engines?
 
you need to specify the R5 tdi and V6tdi ... the world is large and wonderous outside of Nth America ;)
 
i guess we cant forget the uber W12, you know you want one:)

Yeah the W12 would be suhweet.
I know there is a lot of variations w/ TDI and not and all,
just checking V6,8,10 in general. See which one is making the Gas companies richer!
 
I think the poll starter limited the choices a bit. What about V6 TDi, R5 TDi obviously started by an American who thinks the whole world is the same as the US !

Yes. Maybe we can talk to a moderator and modify the polls
V6 = TDI and so on, a V6 is a V6
V8 = V8, I dont think options modify the cylinders?
 
Can you all just hash out the exact options you want in the poll. Then we can start a new thread and get people to vote again. That way the results will be the most accurate. Please PM a moderator when your ready and they will move this old poll/thread out of the way so the new one will be the main poll on this topic.
 
Here are all the engines I know of that have ever lived under the Touareg's hood:

2.5-liter R5 TDI
3.0-liter V6 TDI (225hp or 240hp)
3.2-liter V6 (220hp or 240hp)
3.6-liter FSI V6 (280hp)
4.2-liter V8 (310hp)
4.2-liter FSI V8 (350hp)
5.0-liter V10 TDI
6.0-liter W12

Suhweet, that covers everything ! I hope!
 
Too bad polls can't be modified. You are missing several engine choices that are available around the world. This isn't just a North American site.
What other choices are there? I take it the W12 and R5 indicate cylinders, right?

Correct, the # in the engine type (R5, W12, V6) are the number of cylinders.

FYI: The R5 is basically one bank of cylinders of a V10. No timing belts or chains, or accessory drive belts. Everything is gear driven. Very cool, until a water pump or something goes wrong.
