2004 Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.  This is probably one of the lowest mileage V10 Touaregs out there.  I was specifically looking for a Black/Teak last summer from the south super nice with real low miles.  This was in Miami and I had it shipped up to Michigan from the original owner.  I have the need to get back into a truck so I have purchased a 2500HD Diesel and am ready to sell the Touareg.  I have had a few of them and absolutely love the V10.  If you have any interest please call and I can discuss it with you and we can put a deal together.  517-918-3653 Brandon

It is as loaded up as you can get.  It has some rare options as well.  Black exterior and Teak interior.  Navigation, Air suspension, electronic ride control, heated front AND REAR seats, 4 zone climate control, HEATED STEERING WHEEL, Onstar, locking differentials, etc. etc. 

It is all original paint and has never been damaged.  Paint looks great and is polished up and shines like new.  Interior and exterior are clean and nice.  It has the factory 19" wheels which have been done black and a new set of Bridgestone Blizzak snow tires.  Only thing I can critique about it is the rear climate control must have gotten some cleaner or something on it and that Volkswagen soft touch black on the buttons is sticky and wore off some.  A couple of front buttons are a bit like that but I am very picky and hate that so I replaced the front climate controll and headlight switch and the navigation unit looks new and perfect.  Only ones in front showing anything are the little heated seat dials.  Also the plastic latched in the top of the rear seats to put them down are cracked or broke must be from the Florida heat.  I put new black Volkswagen embroidered floor mats in it.  New Weathertech rear cargo liner.

I'll list the aftermarket or mods....

-Dyno-Comp ECU tune.  419 HP 750 ft./lbs. of torque with tune.  It is awesome and runs amazing.  I did a lot of research on buying a tune and spoke with several people.  This tune was by far the most expesive but was the one I trusted the most to be reliable and perfect.  Below is from their website.  Tune was $1295

Just because the price of diesel is going to sky rocket this summer doesn’t mean there is no light at the end of the tunnel for your VW TDI. With the help of Dyno-Comp you can not only pick up power but you will also see a significant increase in fuel economy. This V10 Touareg picked up over 85 ft lbs of torque at the wheels with nothing more then our own in house software! If you have been considering doing a software package to your car the biggest benefits that you will notice are increased power, increased fuel economy, better towing capabilities, top speed limiter removed, and a quicker throttle response. Here is an idea of the power you can expect from this software upgrade…

Bone Stock: 2006 VW Touareg V10 TDI

REAL WORLD this is what a 2006 VW Touareg V10 TDI puts down for power..

  • 260 (Wheel HP) x 1.35 = 351 at the flywheel.
  • 470 (Wheel TQ) x 1.35 = 635 at the flywheel.

These numbers were taken from a stock car and may vary.

  • HP is now at 310 (at the wheels) which equates out to about 419 HP at the flywheel.
  • TQ is now at 555 (at the wheels) which is approx 750 TQ at the flywheel.

At the end of the day what does all this mean…

  • +68 HP increase at the flywheel.
  • +115 TQ increase at the flywheel.

-Exhaust system.  Custom Mandrel bent and TIG welded secondary CAT delete pipes and full rear section with muffler delete and tips.

-Tinted headlights, taillights and marker lights.  Done with film and removeable.  Blacked out trim and emblems.  Also removeable.  Tinted front windows. 

-K & N filters in stock airboxes.

-OEM integration Ipod/aux audio input.

I also have a set of Sport-Comp forged aluminum black powdercoated 22" wheels in perfect condition with new Yokohama tires.  Wheels are over $1000 each and tires about $300 each.  Over 5K new.  They can be purchased for a VERY FAIR additional cost if your interested.

VW budget sub-brand stuck in limbo over VW standards, costs

Sun, Mar 2 2014

Reports in October 2012 claimed Volkswagen had begun investigating the creation of its own budget brand. This came after having failed to purchase Malaysian car company Proton or produce a meaningful partnership with Suzuki, and after watching Renault-Nissan make piles of euro on Dacia and plot the return of Datsun. For VW, more important than the question of what to call it was how to build it profitably and in a way that didn't damage the VW brand. According to a report in Autocar, a satisfactory answer still hasn't been found. The hurdle is how to hit "'necessary' quality and safety levels" at the price points needed to make the venture worthwhile. At the time of the 2012 report, German outlet Der Spiegel said VW was trying to get prices down to 6,000 to 8,000 euro ($7,784 to $10,379 US), about two thousand to four thousand euro under the price of the VW Up and in line with the cost of a 6,790-euro Dacia Sandero in Germany. In March 2013, VW announced, "We want to bring a true budget car to the market in China in the foreseeable future," the most concrete move in that direction after years of planning to make a decision. Working with local Chinese maker FAW, it was predicted that the vehicle in question would appear around 2016, but as of November last year a final vote on it needed to wait until this year because "We are still working on the cost side" and profit possibilities for a car that "has to be durable, it has to be precise, it has to be safe." Even Fiat, another automaker long considering a budget brand beneath its Fiat line-up, wasn't sure how to squeeze any extra money from lower-cost products but was sure that it couldn't be done by manufacturing in Europe. If VW hasn't yet made the math work with a joint venture in China, it will be interesting to see how it might build a European go-it-alone business case.

VW ready to spend $25B on at least 6 EVs in China by 2018

Tue, Apr 22 2014

Standing next to the lovely GTE plug-in hybrid during the Beijing Motor Show, VW CEO Martin Winterkorn announced a renewed, $25-billion focus for the German automaker on electric mobility in China. EVs + China is not a new equation for VW (see here and here and here), but the time is now for the plan to come together, apparently. As Winterkorn said in a statement (available below), "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history" – Martin Winterkorn With the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid already in showrooms, the next tip of the spear is made up of the all-electric e-up! and e-Golf, both of which are due later this year. In 2015, the Audi A3 e-tron and Golf GTE will arrive. In 2016, there will be two exclusive-to-China plug-in hybrid vehicles in showrooms: a A6 PHEV and a "new mid-size limousine from the Volkswagen brand." VW Group may even throw in the Bentley Hybrid Concept for good measure. The China-only models will be built in the country and VW is investing over $25 billion between now and 2018, creating an expected 20,000 jobs. VOLKSWAGEN GROUP STARTS ELECTRO-MOBILITY CAMPAIGN IN CHINA CEO Prof. Dr. Winterkorn: "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." Campaign gets underway with electric up!1 and e-Golf2 Over ˆ18 billion to be spent on new vehicles, technologies and plants up to 2018 Over 500,000 employees at more than 3,600 dealerships in 2018 Vehicle deliveries in China targeted to top 3.5 million for first time in 2014 Wolfsburg / Beijing, April 22, 2014: "The Volkswagen Group is once again assuming a pioneering role in China and launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history," Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, CEO of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, announced at the Auto China motor show in Beijing. The initiative gets underway with the launch this year of the Volkswagen brand's electric up!1 and e-Golf2 models. While the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid3 is already in the showrooms in China, the Group will be launching two further innovative plug-in hybrid vehicles there next year with the Audi A3 e-tron4 and the Golf GTE5.

VW Chattanooga plant very close to UAW representation

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

After months of fighting from both sides, it looks like the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, might unionize under the United Auto Workers after all. According to a letter acquired by The Associated Press, VW and the UAW reportedly struck a deal last spring where the union agreed to stop its challenge of the organization vote with the National Labor Relations Board to help clear the way for the CrossBlue to be produced in Tennessee. In exchange, the automaker would recognize the UAW at the plant. Leaders of the Local 42 at the facility reportedly signed the letter.
It seems that such an agreement would clear the way for the factory to unionize after months of dispute. According to The Detroit News, under Tennessee law, workers aren't required to join the organization. Although, that might not be a problem. As of a few months ago, Local 42 already claimed to have signed around 700 of the plant's roughly 1,500 workers.
Controversy has constantly swirled around the possible unionization at the Chattanooga plant. The UAW held its official decision in February and lost 712 to 626. However, there were allegations of intense political pressure to make sure the ballot failed. A later report also found that VW was offered $300 million in incentives well before the vote to make sure things progressed to the "satisfaction of the State of Tennessee," but the deal was later retracted. In July, the UAW opened Local 42 on the campus in hopes of signing up a majority of the workforce by volunteering to be a part of it.
