Briefly about problems and weak places of diesel engines and gasoline engines of Taways. The most important and costly sores that are worth remembering before buying, as well as methods of checking.
A large number of buyers do not at all represent the realities of the market and the average technical status cars. In this article, we will analyze in detail why it is impossible to buy premium without careful checks and how to find a live car.

Taways problems GP / NF 3.0 V6 TDI.
Overview of the reliability and problems of diesel engines Volkswagen Touareg
To begin with, it is worth talking about standard issues. cOMMON RAIL. diesel engines that are the same that Mercedes is that in Volkswagen, that at BMW.
Wear fuel injectors - A terribly unpleasant problem of diesel engines with direct injection. Unpleasant because one nozzle costs about 30-35 thousand rubles, and the number of pump-nozzles in the engine is equal to the number of cylinders.
There are many services offering repair nozzles, but in many cases this repair is possible only for sale, because In most cases, repaired pump-nozzles go no more than six months with the intensive use of the car.
The problem of poor-quality repairs lies in old non-blockable stands where the injection is debugged or in unsuitable for specific brands of the nozzles of stands. If the seller indicates that all the nozzles have recently been replaced and it immediately sells - most likely collective farm repairs for sale and you will have to redo for your money.
The main cause of failure is low-quality fuel (increased sulfurness, solid fractions in a diesel engine, precipitate and getting it into the fuel ramp with a long ride on almost an empty tank.) By the way, this is another reason not to buy anything at the outbid, because They always ride the "last snot" in the tank. Problems with fuel nozzles on Volkswagen rather rare, even despite low quality diesel fuel in Russia.
TNVDor high pressure pump.
As mentioned above, you can prematurely break the high pressure pump by frequent driving on an empty tank. Until the middle of 2009, the CASA (3.0 240 GP forces) of diesel engines TNVD over time could fail due to the factory marriage. Primary symptoms - uneven thrust, bunted.
The advance diagnostics of such faults is possible only during a test drive, a malfunction can be identified on the lift only after the pump came into full disrepair and could apply the metal chips into the fuel ramp or the nozzle pump. This sore of the Taaregs is massive and hope that it will not affect you - extremely naive. On BKS Motors (3.0 224 GP Force) such a problem not.
Determine the presence of a problem on a Casa Motor is quite simple, however if the car was produced until 2009, it is worth finding whether the RTVD is replaced and if not - it is necessary to do it yourself.
Turbine or turbocharger.
Even despite the relatively small cost of repairing this problem of diesel engines of the taguega, the turbine is still worth carefully checking before buying. To do this, it is not enough to just look at the fogging or remove the nozzles for inspecting the leaks of oil.
To understand the residual margin of the strength of the turbine or simply speaking how much turbine is passed, professional computer diagnostics During the test drive. The competent repair of the turbine on Tuareg is now varies in the cost of from 30 to 45 thousand. There are no clinic diseases of turbines on taways, the average service life is usually 150-200 thousand. Permanent aggressive ride, chipovka or lack of habit of cooling the turbine significantly reduces the service life.
Flowing the gland between the engine and automatic transmission.
This problem is a mass disease and is manifested almost on all the taways of all years, especially on diesel engines. The seal itself is a cheek thing, it costs about 1 thousand rubles to retail, but to replace it, you need to throw off the gearbox. Different services are charged different prices for this operation, but on average this species Works worth about 15-25 thousand rubles.
In addition, after a while, usually no more than a year, you may find that the loaf of the flow is again. This is a real weak point of the Tuareg GP / NF, with whom it is unlikely to be able to cope.
Another hated and very common problem of diesel taueneges are faults of intake manifolds 3.0 V6 TDI.
This problem is old as the world and its root lies in zakuing and in the future stretching plastic traction of the vortex dampers. At first, the intake manifold is clogged with soot, Nagar and the hell knows what else it can be clogged (including due to the EGR operating valve). The dirt is clogged into the sled and around a stepper motor that moves the craving, in the future under the influence of the effort and temperature of the thrust are deformed or stuck. With this, the vortex flaps are stuck in one position and impede the normal filling of cylinders with a mixture. Basically, the problem is manifested by 3.0 liters of Diesel engines BKS / CASA / CASB / CASC
Solutions of the problem with the intake manifold on taways several. The most expensive and obvious is the replacement of the left and right collector, every 40 thousand rubles plus installation work.
The second and less obvious is the replacement of plastic thrust on metal. Proposals for the sale of these parts a lot on the taareg club and other forums, as well as to Avito. It is enough to drive into the search engine "traction intake manifold Tuareg", and the results will be an overabundance of proposals for details for the repair of the intake manifold.
The third version of solving the problem of the inlet collector of the Taughelov - to disable and remove the vortex dampers on the usas.
Loosen of the throttle gossip 3.0 V6 TDI Touareg.
Also, as in the case of plastic traction, which change to metal, plastic worn gears of DZ vary on metal and you do not remember this taguega disease. Change throttle valve The whole for the sake of the plastic part with the cost of less than 10 rubles at least stupid. Any club service working with taways can replace both traction and gears.
Is there a soup filter on Tuareg? Problems of the exhaust system of diesel engines.
Let's start with the fact that on the taways GP dairy filter It may be if the auto fit from Europe, and on NF taways can be on cars produced for the Russian Federation. You can learn about the existence of the size of the VIN-code configuration.
Self-filter itself is not a problem. If you regularly leave on the track and not to fill diesel from kamaz / diesel locomotives, there will never arise with it. However, if the runs are predominantly urban, then the scene filter can be clogged for a relatively short period of time. With preferably driving in the city, it is necessary to produce forced burning Syzhevik once a year or remove it along with the EGR valve, be sure to reflash the engine to operation mode without DPF.
What will affect the removal of DPF (Syzhovka)? Nothing. This is an exceptionally ecological pribrud, the maximum that you can notice is a more tangible smell of diesel at idle and slightly more black smoke with sharp accelerations. The same applies to the recirculation system. carter gases EGR. The only positive moment of this system in more fast warmth Engine.
Problems of diesel engine R5 2.5 TDI
Volkswagen Touareg GP (BAC / BPE)
What is the difference between BAC and BPE engines? Which is better?
It would seem the same diesel engines 2.5 R5 have a huge amount of differences, for example, different blocks of cylinders, not interchangeable and constructively differ. Accordingly, it is impossible to put a block of cylinders from the BAC in BPE. Fastening (bracket) Turbines are different, and this is only the top of the iceberg.
The BAC 2.5 R5 engine has an aluminum block of cylinders with a spraying of the walls, which lies on large runs. Treatment of 2.5 Diesel Diesel BAC - cylinder sleeve.
The BPE 2.5 R5 engine has an aluminum cylinder block with silicon crystals. This coating is substantially stronger than Alusil / Nacaisil and our experts found engines with native mileage of more than 500 thousand without jackets of cylinder walls. When choosing a car, specify the engine model.
The diagnostic laboratory recommends that potential buyers do not make the purchase of R5 2.5 liters, without endoscopy of cylinders, and better to abandon 2.5 Taways and pay attention to the more resource 3.0 BKS (224 forces) the motors.
Ayh, Ble, BWF V10 TDI 5.0 Diesel Taways GP and its Disadvantages (2002-2010)
Is it worth buying Touareg 5.0 V10 in 2018? An unambiguous answer is only if you plan it complete Rebuild. Almost all 5.0 diesel engines are dead or on the verge of death both turbines, and in the same state the gearbox. If you do not have an additional 200-300 thousand for recovery, it makes no sense to consider this motor.
As a small remark from the editor of the diagnostic laboratory, I would like to say that the motors 5.0 V10 TDI Tuaregov or, for example, 6.0 V12 Diesel from Audi Q7 should not be bought, if you do not have a clear understanding of the difference in the cost of servicing these motors from the civil line 2.5 R5 and 3.0 V6. You should not also attribute V8 diesel with a volume of 4.1 liters (Touareg NF) into one line with V10 and V12 engines, because 4.1 The costs and complexity of service is in one row with simple motors.
4.2 (4.1 liters) TDI V8 Buturbo Diesel (2010-2018)
PROBLEMS V8 4.2 of the diesel engine is almost no different from those who are exposed to 3.0 Diesel engines BKS / CAS family. It is also closely necessary to pay attention to the purchase of the fuel system, otherwise the replacement of eight fuel injectors with a total cost of more than 200 thousand can be very disappointed.
In addition to the standard possible problems of diesel engines 3.0, the engine 4.2 has increased sensitivity to chip. It is expressed in the accelerated death of turbines and cracking cells (cells) of intercoolers with a subsequent flow. With increasing boost for Stage 2, cases of cracks of the hot part of the turbine are fixed.
On the engines 4.2 V8, the valve of the gas recirculation system is on average rolling faster than 3.0 diesel engines, so we recommend that it does not wait for it to break into an uncomfortable moment and clean or remove it in advance.
Problems of gasoline taways 3.6 and 4.2 GP (2002-2010)
Gasoline versions of taaregs with engines 3.6 liters (280 or 249 forces for NF) do not have special problems, as well as outstanding characteristics. Few people know, and those who know - ignore the fact that this engine is designed for 98 gasoline. Partly because the VR6 engine is equipped direct injection And has a high degree of compression. The long-term use of low-fuel fuel accelerates the wear of the chain, therefore, unlike the old V6, 3.2 liters, where the chains bold more than 200 thousand kilometers, at 3.6 VR6 the motor Many owners change the chains by 120-150 thousand.
As on any car with direct injection, on 3.6, it is necessary to check the health of the TNVD and fuel injectors. Fortunately, the chance to "get" on the nozzles on the gasoline engine is significantly lower than on a diesel engine and is associated primarily with higher quality of gasoline production, which in turn seriously reduces the sediment or solid fraction of garbage.
Gas engine 4.2 V8 (350 forces), the same is set to the AUDI Q7 Dorestayl, has a nasty predisposition to the coverage of the walls of the block of cylinders. It happens regardless of the run and has the same roots as the jackets on Porsche Cayenne.. Buy cars with this engine without preliminary endoscopy is unreasonable, because The cost of the sleeper in the case of buying a blast unit - 300-400 thousand rubles turnkey.
The Diagnostic Laboratory company is engaged in the professional selection and diagnosis of Volkswagen Taureg of diesel and gasoline versions of all years of release. Why it is worth using the services and what we can check. Our services?
IN model row Volkswagen until 2002 did not have real SUVs. But against the background of lifting the crossover market and the success of the Audi Allroad of the first generation, it was decided to release a full-fledged urban SUV. To the question, it was extremely serious, creating an alliance with sovereign then Porsche, and since 1998, began the development of a new platform for future luxury crossovers.
In 2002, VW Touareg and Porsche Cayenne were released in 2002, and Audi Q7 appeared in 2005. Do not be surprised if in the design of the machine notice something familiar, short term Developments became possible not only thanks to the efforts of the entire alliance and engineering relics of two manufacturers, but also through the use of already proven solutions applied on.
But from the Allroad the car is very different, because there is a layout with an engine over the front axle and a separate handout. And unlike many large crossovers, there is a lower transmission and blocking of differentials. Good asphalt manners also did not share anywhere - essentially in front of you "universal fighter".
The design of the machine is a typical child of Audi-VW technologies of the beginning of the two thousandths. Multi-section pendants in front and rear, engine longitudinal location, solid salons and strong steel body. For those who were ready to pay for comfort and off-road qualities, a pneumatic suspension was offered, and for those who were not alien sports ambitions - also sports suspension and aerodynamic kites.

Volkswagen Touareg. V10 TDI 2002-2007
Inside, the car also did not fail: good finishes, space and almost all possible options for such a class from multizone climate control to the best leather and custom seats. Excellent trunk, volumetric and having good transformation capabilities. This premium in German. True, the complexity of the internal electronics also concerns, unfortunately. The automatic transmissions were new, this time not from the traditional supplier, ZF, and the six-speed "automatic" from AISIN, the latest TR-60SN series. "Mechanics" also left, but it was practically no machines with it. Motor manifolds did not have, a very modest gamma of gasoline engines until 2006 included a good V6 3.2 liter series BAA (220 hp), BKJ, BMX (these are already 240 hp) and V8 4, 2 series AXQ (306 hp), both with a regular distributed injection and well-known cars.
Their in the process of restyling was replaced with new "direct" FSI motors V6 3.6 (276 hp) and V8 4.2 (350 hp) of the BHK and BHX series. Since 2006, the top engine has been W12 with a volume of 6 liters and a capacity of 450 hp. It is clearly seen that no "dead" packages are not provided, the power of motors is more than "sufficient." Diesel engines are a bit, but there are no problems with the capacity, the weakest turbodiesel 2.5 has 174 hp, and a huge V10 is all 350 forces. Between them is located a three-liter V6 with a capacity of 240 hp
Instead of a test drive
As it turned out, on the move the car is harsh, but little is inferior to structures on a purely passenger chassis on handling and dynamics. And according to the possibilities on off-road Volkswagen reinsured - the chassis was even excessively passable. The ability to overcome the obstacles was limited not to the possibilities of the chassis, but rather the cost of hinged elements and aerodynamic obligation Body. Although those who have exploited the car, do not spare body and bumpers, complained about rapidly contaminated radiators, weak cards of aggregates, easily failing elements of electronics under the body and a small suspension resource in such conditions.In fact, Tuarege turned out to be the most prestigious and expensive Volkswagen in the entire history of the brand, except for the frank loser Phaeton, who appeared with him in the same year, but could not win sufficient popularity, remaining the unprofitable model all his conveyor life. Common Cayenne turned out to be so popular that Porsche almost bought the entire Volkswagen concern entirely on revenues from its sales, and the Audi Q7, who later reached the rest, secured the reputation of the concern in the segment of luxury crossovers due to even larger sizes, more prestigious brand and more dynamic automatic transmission. Zf.
Breakdowns and problems in operation
Body and Salon
Taways body is fulfilled by solidity, and the safety margin is excellent. The quality of the color, oddly enough, more often brings the car after restyling 2006, the earlier. But in any case, the rust and dyustification of the LCP is rather an exception to the rules. Half of the mounted aluminum attachments, the thresholds are securely covered with plastic. While Tuarega is still applicable to the stamp "If the car was not in an accident, there are no rust." In addition to really bied machines Often there are also "drill" - a large flood in Slovakia had to just for the period of particular popularity of these cars, and the cost of the taguega did the recovery after the flood of the case is quite profitable. There are quite a few such cars in Russia. Their body also earlier than usual corrosion due to the accumulation in the inner cavities of sand and dirt. But most of the problems are not connected at all with rust on the body, but with corrosion of wiring and more frequent problems Electricians. Age cars sometimes suffer from corrosion in a completely "Zhigulevsky" place - on the shelf of the engine shield, where water is stared because of the cracked drainage. Problems do not make themselves waiting, moisture penetrates the seams of seams and seeps into the salon.
The back door of the age age older than five years also often begins to pass water into the salon, and a lot is also poured inside the door - it is recommended to change the door seals on time and check the state of the rear headlamp seals. Cause of this problem - unsuccessful lock design rear door, Yes, and side door locks are weak, frequent failures of the terminal switches and the clinic mechanic of the castle itself begin to get machine owners from six to seven years. Another badge of Tuaregov is the foreheads, which are too easy to remove, and their cost on the market used parts is still great. And let the problem not stand so sharply, like the Nostlatformal Porsche, but the probability of this event is recommended to consider and not leave the car where it fell. And it is better to take care of installing additional mounting attachment. For the same reason, the originality of lighting products can not be taken into account when buying. One of the characteristics of the model is her spare wheel. Most machines have in the trunk only a very modest "rate", and there is not enough space to accommodate a full-fledged spare wheel. But there is an opportunity to progress, because the company produces branded crowns "spares" to the back door, just like "Shniiva". I recommend paying attention to the spare parts sign - very little non-original body detailsand often no even original spare parts In many other nodes. Obviously, the high hijaciousness of the model is only a consequence of such an unsuccessful spare parts supply policies, and with age, the situation is unlikely to improve. Consider this moment when planning a purchase. A very pleasant and solid luxury SUV salon in fact is not so perfect. Correction of panels over time is another Polbie. Worse than others: decorative inserts and plastic are frankly weak, however, as on. Get off and buttons, and handles. The skin in most of the packages also does not suffer from "excess" quality - very quickly becomes obvious that it is leatherette, and not from the best.
Expensive thin skin was also weak and often requires visits to the car "speed" for the repair of torn seams. In addition, a frankly "gray" species ceases to arrange the owners in a few years of operation, so that the gentle skin and new, better decorative interior inserts for the taguega are not uncommon. They are noticeably more often than on other machines of the same class. Here is additional noise insulation - a rarity, for the outer noise penetrates into the salon only through the rear door seals with a non-regulated lock and from the wheeled arches, if very aggressive rubber is installed.
Electrician
Electrical problems pursue VW-Audi machines of those times. Only in the case of the top SUV, they turned out many times more than with a car simpler. There are not only blocks of comfort of the cabin and a multimedia system, but also a variety of safety and patency systems, are tied to electronics. This is one of the first models of the company with the connection of most nodes to the CAN-bus, and the number of problems turned out to be Velisting. The owners of dorestayling taaregs with horror recall the situation until 2008, in which the flashing required absolutely everything, and the situation when the car was simply not started in the morning, became ordinary. With the time of trouble, the software was settled, but now comes new stage In the lives of those machines - this time associated with the quality of wiring and operating conditions. Interventions of inexperienced electricians, unrealized failures, corrosion of connectors, weak batteries and dying generators provided a new shaft for problems for dorestayling machines. Independent can be considered only cars that serve on the highest discharge, hold the salon in dryness and purity, follow the health of all nodes to the smallest sensor.
On the release machines from 2006-2007, there were really less problems from the very beginning, but it cannot be said that now they have a solid advantage in fault tolerance. They are a little newer, they have a little less problems, a little better waterproofing of some nodes like door locks, but they don't like the neakkurat wash, traveling on deep puddles, frequent cheap dry cleaning of the cabin, drocking the hatch or motor shield, poor rear door seal . By and large, even purely resource problems with the heater motor, the system for regulating its revolutions, climatic installation and others were not solved. Taking into account the situation with the motors, you should not pay extra for restyling.
Chassis
The base suspension remained spring, but as I said, it was offered and sharply fashionable at that time the pneumatics, which allowed to get a high smoothness of the stroke and very large ground clearance If necessary. The front multi-list can be damaged for a couple of arrival on-road, it relatively easily loses geometry and requires a comprehensive approach to repair, absolutely not by submitting the type of service "on the first knock." The resource of the ball supports of the upper levers in the front suspension is usually within 50-120 thousand kilometers, depending on the style of driving and motor. Shock absorbers serve not much longer. Silent blocks of the lower lever often go and longer, except for the rear, which also changes usually when mileageing up to 60 thousand kilometers. But the lower ball support can be out of order when running from 50 thousand, if you do not regret the car, and you have to change the entire lever, complete with still whole "rubber bands".
Behind the suspension is stronger, but in essence does not change anything: they just have to serve them a little less. The resource can be one and a half more than that of the front suspension, if only the machine is not operated with full load. The external silent blocks of the lower lever and the upper levers are first faced, and when driving off-road, you can damage the drives and internal silent blocks of the lower lever. Traction stabilizers transverse stability Here - consumables, they can be enough for a couple of trips to nature. It is very hard stabilizers and desire for designers to reduce rolls with good pendants. It is recommended to change traction to metal non-original with reinforced hinges, such available. On machines with optional active stabilizers, the owners are waiting for a surprise in the form of their price and resource. The cost of the new detail is about one hundred thousand rubles. The resource of the stabilizer may be less than that of the thrust, and everything depends on the style of movement. The number of hydraulics problems is also large - at least there are miscalculations with the material of the compounds, they often corroded.
In the case of a pneumatic suspension, such a problem existed before restyling, after 2006, there were no problems with corrosion and pipelines. But the resource "Pneuma" still leaves much to be desired. After hundreds of thousands of kilometers the number of small and not very failures begin to grow like a snowball. Sucho - increased load on the elements of the system due to increasing air leaks, and after one and a half hundred thousand mileage usually begin the first replacements of pneummobalon. In machines that at least occasionally go on off-road or ride in the sand, and at the same time the owners do not wash cylinders, the resource decreases once a half or two. The original rack is now worth more than one hundred and thirty thousand, and "neoriginal" - from hundreds. Racks in the car four pieces. It is not surprising that in the market there are alterations from pneumatics on a conventional suspension, and varying degrees of conscientiousness.
The steering rack is here with a good safety margin, she brings it infrequently. Light knocks are quite admissible and do not threaten serious consequences. The resource of steering and tips is also quite decent, not less than one hundred thousand during normal operation. Powerful brake mechanisms of the machine will make the honor of a different sports car. The price of solutions as a result is rather big. Save on the brakes in Tuareg should not be accurate - heavy and powerful machine They are not always enough, so overheating disks occur regularly. The native pads are selected soft enough, and when buying neoriginal, it is also recommended to pay attention first not to their resource (they are unlikely to live much longer than the typical 30 thousand kilometers), but to wear brake discs. Brake mechanisms Front here is a six-piston Brembo on most of the cars, very powerful. And six pistons mean that they are six times more chances, and in the same six times higher than the cost of the caliper itself. It is strongly recommended to check the condition of the calipers at each shift of the pads.
Motors
Gasoline engines for the taguega can be divided into two era: before and after restyling. "To" - this is good for its time motors, very reliable "cast iron" V6 and a more fragile alluminous V8. But after restyling, gasoline engines are replaced by something completely unsuccessful in the form of new two engines with direct fuel injection and a multitude of structural defects. Dorestayling V6 BAA 3.2 series and slightly updated and powerful options are distinguished by a rather successful design. The chain timing is a bit complicated, but it is quite reliable, the injection system and control electronics do not require serious intervention until the mileage is about 150-200 thousand kilometers, and then require the audit of the sensors and checking the state of the GBC and TRM. The chain usually asks for replacement earlier, when there is about one hundred thousand mileage. In the case of some good luck, whose deposit is the oil change more often than 15 thousand and good "synthetics", and even no overheating, the motor will pass as much as serious intervention. Provided that he still follows, unfortunately, there are problems, and unlike earlier engines, the motor is demanding more than fuel and oil and is inclined to climbing under urban operation. There are problems with the inlet system - it is recommended to clean the intake path with each replacement of the filter element. And the individual coils on the release machines until 2008, in addition to the frequent failure of the electronics itself, it happens, the tip is destroyed, remaining on the candle when removing the coil. Replacing this motor after restyling, a more voluminous V6 3.6 liter is not different in good character. More "perfect" and powerful, he "pleases" owners of the decent oil consumption, up to a liter per thousand already when runs up to one and a half hundred thousand kilometers. Its chain timing may unexpectedly fail at runs less than one hundred thousand, and the problem adds a direct injection system. Here and capricious nozzles, and poor launch in winter, and the emerging TNVD, which for an incomprehensible reason has a very small resource of the mechanical part and is inclined to leaks and pressure losses.
Unsuccessful thermostat and electronics complement the number of troubles. As a result, the increased power is unlikely to succeed, but bullshit burns with numerous and early repairs is easy. Undelved oil level - and now there are already a multiple metal engine turns into a completely useless piece of metal. Yes, problems with ignition coils have not disappeared anywhere, as is not a very successful inlet system. As a result - the probability of problems with this motor is noticeably higher than with old 3.2, and the benefits are not obvious. In fact, fuel consumption is not reduced, and the thrust is slightly more. Here is the dorestayling motor 4.2 V8 noticeably more powerful. And there are no more problems with it than with dorestayling V6. Is that the timing of the timing here is strange, as well as all the "five-flaped" motors: here it is a belt with a short chain, which binds the camshafts themselves. The design is worked out over a decade, although the soliduminous block with an alumina coating of the cylinder walls is much worse to carry overheating and bad filters - entering any solid particles into the cylinder entails its damage and complete conclusion of the block. Of course, but the recovery V8 will be very expensive. When buying, try to check the piston group with an endoscope for damage to the coating of cylinders and do not take machines with a frank oil appetite - even if it is simply oiling caps, then the nap can damage the piston group. However, the moderate oil consumption within the liter-other 10 thousand mileage kilometers is a normal result, a consequence of a not very successful Carter ventilation system, which entails the inlet grinding and frequent flows of the motor. This trouble is better to eliminate so as not to miss more serious. In general, the resource of the piston group of the motor is very large, when runs for 300 thousand kilometers, wear may be absent, piston group Almost not inclined to check, and in general the engine can be considered very successful.
After restyling 4.2, I lost 8 valves, but I purchased a beautiful, complex and completely inoperable Timing mechanism, a weak cylinder block, a complex and problem injection system and not recommended to purchase. Read more -. The cost of the problems of the new motor is extremely large, as well as the likelihood of their appearance. Again, the advantage in economy and dynamics is not obvious at all. Motor W12 on secondary market Not found, but in fact there is little different on the list of problems from 3.6 and 4.2 release engines after 2006. Diesel engines from Tuareg are mostly reliable. The basic engine 2.5, it would seem, should be ideal - even the timing is not a chain or belt, but a gear, which means almost eternal. But in fact, it is not eternal and it, because the high level of stubble oscillations damages the clutches of the support mechanisms. In addition, a pump-nozzle pump is used in the system, the resource of which is limited to about 100-150 thousand mileage kilometers on a typical fuel for Russia. Part of the machines arise with cylinder coating - on this motor VW performed experiments with plasma spraying of the steel layer on the aluminum unit. Fortunately, on this list of basic troubles ends, the absolute majority of 2.5 diesel engines feel very good when "for two hundred" runs. The resource of the turbine is here more than 200 thousand, on a good diesel-nozzle pumping, more than 150 thousand can pass, and the replacement of the coupling is not so troublesome and the road, if you use inexpensive analogues. Diesel V10 is very similar to two row "fives" 2.5, and in fact it is it: here the same gear timber, the same problems and features of operation. Only occurs the motor is not so often and less frequently in adolescent hands, so it is not seen in the folk cylinder, and the rest of the problems appear also less often, due to the larger resource injectors and turbines.
2002 "Volkswagen-Tuareg" debut (model 7L code). Body: 5-door wagon (SUV).

Body and electrical equipment: nervous system
Attractive at the price of "Tuaregov" on the secondary market a lot. This sometimes turns his head to a potential buyer, and he hurries to strike hands. It is not necessary to hurry here even by the experienced motorist. This is not the machine to agree to the transaction without prior diagnosis.
The first years have problems with electronics, more precisely, with her software - Softe, if we speak computer tongue. And "Tuareg", in fact, and there is a computer on wheels: about forty-electronic modules communicate according to the CAN-bus code combinations of zeros and units.
The filling of the Blocks themselves is quite reliable. Often problems were caused by the negligence of the owners: the blocks were poured during the dry cleaning of the cabin; It happened, the drinker of the heater or the hatch in the roof was clogged, and the water fell under rugs quickly straightened with wiring.
Choosing a four-five-year plan, pay attention to the engine wiper motor devices and the door opening buttons and glasses of the trunk. All the fault of corrosion, sticking axis and corrosive contacts of the terminating. For those who rarely drove on the sink, also the illumination of the rooms turn into a duch. In Churel, other problems: due to frequent miles with active shampoos, chrome out of decorative body parts. On machines after restyling 2006, these problems were noticeably dressed.
If rusting the body itself, then, most likely, he managed to be repaired (and therefore in the accident). After all, in standard exploitation, even seven-year copies are keen. And it's not only in plastic front wings and aluminum hood, which is nippled (the latter in front of painting), but also in a good paint coating.
Transmission: jerk in the stop
A trial trip must be sent on a heated car. So it is better to feel the jerk when switching gear - the first sign of the ambulance grave of the ACP hydroblock, the replacement of which will be in a round sum. Typically, the first symptoms appear not earlier than 200 thousand km, but if the car regularly strained off the road or dragged the trailer, then be prepared for early replacement.
Features of the use of a particular copy strongly affect the scatter of the replacement of certain nodes. For example, with predominantly highway connectors, the weakest elements of the suspension - the stabilizers racks - serve 50-60 thousand km, and with frequent trips on broken tracks, 30 thousand are not maintained. Ball supports The upper levers depart, respectively, 60-100, the front shock absorbers - 80-150 thousand km. The resource of steering lugs is about 120 thousand km, steering mechanism and levers rear suspension - 200 thousand, bushings of stabilizers - 100 thousand km. Approximately 130 thousand km lubs the suspended bearing of the shaft coming from the dispensation to the reducer rear bridge. Brake pads wear out for 30 thousand km, discs are three times longer.
MotorTector Locking dispensing box On the machines of the first years of release rarely lived more than 70 thousand km. The defect is well noticeable when turning on pure asphalt: if after unlocking the mid-scene differential, the machine is jerks, it means that the drive did not work.
There is an opinion that pneumatic resistant suspension here " consumables" Laugh to assure: they serve at least five years. But it is better to change the cylinders with the absorption, so as not to be with a given suspension somewhere far away from civilization. First of all, it concerns the cold regions - Siberia and the Far North. Another thing is the leakage of the pneumatic system: if the machine after a long parking lot crouched, pay attention to the brass racks. They corroded in contact with the aluminum end of the cylinder and begin to ride. In 2006, the plant switched to duralum fits, and worries did not. It happens on the contrary: the suspension does not want to descend. It happens more often in winter. Condensate is guilty, which, turning into ice, clogs the tubes. It is not enough to force them to utter enough, it is necessary to drive up and down the suspension to upward so that fresh air passes through the dryer. By the way, such a procedure should be done regularly. Do not worry about the resource of the dryer: when driving the engine, it will dry.
Engine: Heart Load
Diesel 2.5 L is the weakest in the line of motors. Nevertheless, it is popular and, therefore, well studied. The unit is very demanding on the quality of the oil, so strictly follow the manufacturer's recommendations (the admission VW 506-01 or 507-01 should be specified on the canister). And also regularly check the oil visually by removing the dipstick. Especially on machines released until 2007. It happened, the coolant penetrated the coolant through the pump or the heat exchanger of the oil cooler. Emulsion is a verdict for a turbine. Can penetrate the pump-nozzles through the return pump - then the oil acquires a specific smell that can not be confused with anything.
The five-liter V10 is constructively similar, since it is assembled, simplistic, from two row "fives". However, for some reason about it, for some reason. The heads of these motors are essentially the same and represent the works of casting art with a multitude of intricate amplifier jumpers. Sometimes some are bursting, but the manufacturer soothes: nothing, they say, the scary did not happen. If the head did not learn, it really is.
A three-liter diesel engine with the BKS index is quite reliable, which you will not say about its Casa's relatives. The latter is very demanding about the quality of the fuel, so the failure of the pump is not uncommon. One please: replace simply.
Everything petrol aggregates One disease is relative - the failure of the main benzone pump (there is even additional, stripping). On machines released until 2005, the node sometimes did not live to 40 thousand km. Still trouble - sparkular coils buffet. It happens more often when replacing candles, but sometimes on the way. Keep in mind that then the road is one in service. Moreover, it is necessary to move on the most small gas, otherwise the neutralizer will grow up so that it will pay the elements of the interior - there were similar cases. Motor VNK (3.6 l) with direct injection of fuel is extremely rare, and that is, the reason: the unit is not as powerful than AZZ, BMV and BKJ motors (3.2 liters), how difficult and more capricious.
Among the most reliable - gasoline V8, but they, alas, and the most voracious (except for the rare six-liter W12). In addition, the V8 drive timber belt, and this is an extra headache. If it is unknown, when the belt was changed (it should be changed in 180 thousand km), replace immediately, otherwise you will certainly get a "stick" pistons into the valves, a member of the people of Stalingrad.
And also: follow the contact of the generator power terminal, especially if the machine is elderly. It is often due to the increased resistance that the voltage regulator is unable to track, the battery is recharged (the electrolyte rolls out). If there is no new wire, just degenerate the tip of the old in the vice.
All the motors do not have sleeves in the usual understanding of this word. Instead, there is a plasma spraying, and with the wear of the cylindrophone group, the factory technology provides for the replacement of the unit. And although our craftsmen learned to guilize these engines, work costs a round sum. In addition, the avgar of oil after such a repair is reduced slightly.
But in general, problems with a little car. Nevertheless, contain "Tuareg" costs non-sash. Nothing amazing: you like to ride with comfort, mind and money to pay.

In a model row volkswagen brands A SUV appeared. Touareg was developed by the joint efforts of three German brands, other machines created on the same PL71 platform, were Audi Q7 and Porsche Cayenne.
Volkswagen Touareg had a solid interior, like business class sedans, and rich equipment. At the same time, the car was not deprived of off-road: permanent four-wheel drive With downward transmission and blocking of differentials, optional air suspension, which allowed changing the road clearance in the range of 160-300 mm.
The car was installed on the car V6 3.2 (220-241 liters.) And V8 4.2 (306 forces), but already in 2004, instead of the previous "six", a new, volume of 3.6 liters and a capacity of 276 "horses" appeared. Turbodizels were three - five-cylinder 2.5 liters, V6 3.0 and V10 5.0, their returns - from 174 to 350 liters. from. "Taways" was completed with a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed "automatic" of AISIN.
A special position in the model range was occupied by the small version of the Volkswagen Touareg W12 of the 2005 sample. At her hood, there was a twelve-cylinder gasoline motor with a volume of six liters and a capacity of 450 liters. from. Before "hundreds" such an SUV was able to accelerate in 5.9 seconds.
In 2007, a restyling model was held. The updated "Tuareg" received a different design, slightly reworked interior and a wider choice of options. At the same time replacing gasoline motor V8 4.2 came a new engine of the FSI series of the same volume that develops 350 forces. Restyled SUVs S. gasoline engines Completed only automatic gearboxes.
The release of the first generation machines at the factory in Slovak Bratislava ended in 2010.

2 generation (7p), 2010-2018
Second generation krossover Volkswagen. Touareg debuted in 2010. Machine assembly of machines for russian market organized at the factory in Kaluga.
The car was equipped with gasoline atmospheric motors V6 3.6 (249 liters with. In the specification for our market) and V8 4.2 (360 l.), As well as diesel engines V6 3.0 and V8 4.2 with a capacity of 204-340 liters. from. And in the model row there was a hybrid version.
All versions - all-wheel drive and an eight-step "automatic", and the 4xMotion package was offered for extra charge (enlarged ground clearance, downward transmission, the intersective differential with the possibility of forced locking and blocking rear Differential, fuel tank increased to 100 liters of volume).
In 2014, the production of crossovers with an updated design began. At the same time, the cars for the European market led to the Euro-6 standard using SCR filters with Adblue urea injection, but Volkswagen Touareg retained the former motors for Russia.
In 2015, Russian sales of versions with eight-cylinder engines were completed and with hybrid power installationAnd in 2017 the assembly of cars in Kaluga ceased. In Slovakia "Tuareg" of the third generation did until 2018.
Cars from Volkswagen Corporation until today are seen just the ideal acquisition. But in fact, everything has long ceased to be as good as many believe. Many concern cars were not the most successful, they got a lot of unsuccessful technique, which the owners are forced to just constantly repair. This causes a certain change in reviews about these cars. Sure, this fact Can not but affect the manufacturer's rating. But the whole negative falls on mass cars, but the premium class is preferred to be silent. Large crossover Touareg is quite pretty good reviews In all its generations. Its loving both new and used, buy for a family, for business, for long journeys and for other purposes. In a competitive row, this SUV has quite a few bestsellers in the market, but to this day the car holds high positions in sales.
However, it was not without problems this car. Especially serious problems occur if you buy a used car. This is Russia and choose here good car Used very difficult. When it comes to a premium class, complexity increases. Often these cars are well served, in time take a hundred, stored in garages and on covered parking. But the regimes of operation are ruthless, and the first owner knows perfectly well that he will soon change the car to a more modern one. Therefore, the car is operated "to holes", and then prepares for sale and is actively sold on the secondary market marked "perfect condition". Today we will look at where it is worth watching when buying a used car, as well as what to evaluate the factors of childhood diseases. Volkswagen Touareg is better to buy new, but if you decide to purchase a machine with mileage, be sure to consider the following recommendations.
1. Pneumatic suspension - not avoid problems
In many versions and equipment this car Installed a pneumatic suspension with a large number of options. This is an interesting opportunity, but the maintenance of this node on german car It will cost a whole condition. You may argue that such a suspension is broken, but this is true for cars up to 200,000 km of run. Then go costs. Problems may be the following:
- at one fine morning, you may find that your iron horse has become making - fell on one wheel, tamed because of the failure of the rack, which is very expensive;
- pneumatics are connected to the diagnostic system, so that the car could unexpectedly report problems with the suspension and issue an error with the requirement to contact the service station;
- pneumatics in cold weather reacts poorly, problems with low quality fittings were noticed on the first models, poor tightness of the suspension system appeared;
- the compressor that injected pressure into pneumatic modules also failed on many cars over 5-7 years old, and this is a very expensive item that requires only replacement.
Problems with pneumatic suspension Already irrelevant for new cars. Its design is completely different, and the quality of work is strongly changed. This means that when buying Touareg in the cabin, you will not come across trouble in the form expensive repair chassis. But the used car is better to buy precisely with spring scenery. Let it be so comfortable, but reliable and inexpensive.
2. Twisted mileage - the problem of each second
The owners of the premium car perfectly understand that when running for 300,000 km, sell cars for good money will be impossible. Therefore, on each second taouareg on the market, mileage is significantly twisted. Only asparats can determine the intervention when connecting computer diagnostic equipment. It would seem that the mileage was not so scary. But in fact, this factor has such features:
- the German SUV requires a certain quality of service, each one is unique, the replacement of certain parts for the regulations is carried out, so that the service will be offended during the twist;
- all items and mechanisms have a certain resource, so the owners are usually prepared for repair or replacement to a specific run, all breakage will be a surprise for you;
- oil replacement frequency - when saving kilometers counter, no one thinks out of future maintenance, so you can skip important moment with regular then;
- the machine with a mileage of 350,000 km is already a lottery, and when buying a taguega with a mileage of 150,000 km, you are in fact a new car without any special problems in operation.
Therefore, the issue of the mileage remains open. Many owners recommend using even the most expensive checks. real Mileage Machines to make sure in the originality of the data. Often the master on a hundred in the diagnosis of suspension, engine and other parts can easily determine the approximate mileage. When buying such a car, it is necessary to go on a good diagnosis.
3. Poor diesel engine - death of diesel engineering
German cars S. diesel engines Today they are considered the most reliable in their segment. But the first and second generation of Taureg with Diesel turned out to be not so positive in terms of quality of operation. The car works confidently on good fuel, but when refilling on the unverified gas station causes a lot of trouble and problems. Here are just some of them:
- breaks down fuel pump - This causes the impossibility of movement by car until the fault is eliminated, in this case the pump simply changes to the new one;
- the nozzles are clogged - this is a normal problem for all the first Touareg with diesel engines, it will have to clean fuel system often, and this is a notched procedure for a hundred;
- the V6 TDI engine more or less copes with such a problem, but when refilling down-quality fuels, the consumption can be doubled and even more, and the system will fail;
- the fuel filter is clogged, it is pretty small, so after a few fills with poor solo, the filter ceases to perform its tasks, this is a big problem.
If you bought or are going to buy the VW Touareg of the first or second generation, it is worth considering the choice of refueling. This is especially true of diesel units, which are quite serious about cleanliness and composition. fuel mixes. Otherwise, you will become a permanent guest of the service station, and the high cost of services will be laid out of the wallet more and more money.
4. Bad trim chrome and decorative details
Another problem with which the owners of Touareg face after 5 years of operation are decorative. On the body and in the cabin cars are quite a lot of chrome details. They often begin to fill up and pick up after 5-6 years of using the machine. It is very strange if you take into account the eternal chrome elements on the stands of the early 2000s, for example. The following problems may also arise:
- the car is very noticeable losing the attraction external viewmaybe dirty and climb paint on plastic details, rubs the top layer of varnish on the LCP, goes shine;
- with a frequent sink, the paint has been starting to show the first problems for 5 years, and it is not very similar to Volkswagen, since there were no such diseases for such diseases;
- chrome details not only fill up, it is impossible to do anything with them, you have to change them, ordering very expensive new decorative elements in the official;
- the decor in the salon is also often sleeping, plastic elements fall out, inserts of other colors and textures, but this manufacturer deals with poor-quality roads and an inaccier trip.
In general, the car is collected qualitatively, but there is no confidence in the trifles in it. It is rather unusual because we are accustomed to perfect attention to the most small details from VAG. If you take a tuareg with pretty big mileage, It is unlikely that you can avoid the need to repair decorative elements. This is an important caution for all potential buyers of such transport.
5. Gearbox - reliable, but you can kill
When buying a new VW problems with 8-speed automata and other boxes on guard, Touareg does not occur. But here are used cars, especially with a significant age, are distinguished by a huge number of problems in this node. The problem is that the machine initially cannot serve as long as long as mechanical box. Quite often the following problems arise:
- shocks when switching transmissions that occur upon failure and wear of internal equipment, repair is quite expensive, will cost a minimum of 1,000 euros on the service;
- incomprehensible errors on the screen on-board computerwho indicate the failure of the details of the box, often breaks the electronic unit control, replace which is not easy;
- the box can stop working spontaneously, it often appears in it unpleasant sounds, extraneous hum, crackling when switching and other troubles that speak about emergency breakdown;
- for the repair of the 8-speed automaton and other automatic transmission, not all wizards are taken, since the box is quite complicated, its design makes it possible good repair Only on branded hundred.
In recent years, Volkswagen has made a lot so that car buyers can only be serviced at official stations. In Russia, there are many specialized hundred with cheaper services, but it does not save from significant accounts for repair and maintenance. Features of the gearbox should be taken into account before buying a car. It is important to drive the machine in all modes and check on computer diagnostics.
We offer to watch a video about Used Tourareg and its peculiarities:
Let's sum up
Modern cars are always pleasantly surprised by the owner comfort, give excellent opportunities. convenient trip. But they do not always guarantee high quality and long operation. When buying a used Volkswagen Touareg, you become a hostage of circumstances, are forced to be serviced at a narrow circle of stations, buying quite expensive spare parts. But the service for the car does not need too often, the car is reliable and successful in its design. The owners of Taaregov confirm that during moderate operation up to 300,000 km, you can do one regularly.
Nevertheless, many used representatives of Touareg on the market are killed enough. Sell \u200b\u200bthese cars either when buying new generation, or after receiving extremely unpleasant bills from the service. The first option is preferable, so it is best to buy a used SUV at a familiar person. If you know the history of the car, it is easy to predict possible problems soon. Pay attention to the engines. It is often better to buy basic units without complicated fuel technology. In the case of used cars it optimal choice. What do you think about the possibility of buying a used VW Touareg?
