Hi All,
I am looking through carsales trying to find the best optioned touareg for my money. I'm looking around 2003-2008 with about 20K max to spend.
Due to this i have to ask a few questions i hope you all might be able to help me out, i apologize if this has already been asked.
I notice that the satnav units also seem to come with a different dash cluster with a multi colour display as opposed to the stock radio units that only come with the red dash display which i hate the look of. So my question is if i purchase a car with the standard radio and red display can i retrofit the satnav and and the multicolour display to the car ? i thought i read somewhere that there might be differences in the canbus but i'm not sure. i'm hoping it's just plug and play and a little play on VAGCOM and we are good to go.
Will the newer RNS-510 units work on these model cars ?
What are peoples real world figures with fuel economy on the 3.2L v6 and the petrol v8 ?
Is the 5cyl diesel motor reliable and powerful enough for towing ?
Did the base model come available with the option for air suspension or was it only available on the v8 and v10 models ?
I am seriously considering adding one of these as a second vw to our family but i am trying to research as much as i can on them before i buy one.
Thank you.
