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. 

Contact me if you have any questions and I can do my best to answer.  Brandon 517-918-3653

Ex-Fiat exec: VW diesel scandal will hurt plug-in hybrids

Thu, Apr 7 2016

It doesn't sound right at first blush, but former Fiat executive and noted diesel-powertrain expert Rinaldo Rinolfi thinks that plug-in hybrid sales may be more impacted by the VW diesel-emissions scandal than diesel sales. Rinolfi, who worked for Fiat for 40 years, told Automotive News Europe, said that the Euro 6 emissions rules that went into effect in 2015 have already increased diesel-engine production costs enough to raise prices and ultimately flatten demand. By the end of the decade, diesel-vehicle sales will settle in at a 40-percent market share of new European vehicles, and that was going to happen with or without the scandal. "Every carmaker has found ways to achieve fuel consumption and emissions results that have progressively diverged from the real driving conditions." - Rinaldo Rinolfi Makers of plug-in hybrids have more to lose, though, because every PHEV maker has figured out a way to keep emissions figures artificially low, Rinolfi said. Under New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) standards, PHEVs can be tested part of the time with the electric motor in action, meaning emissions get driven down to 30 percent to 40 percent less than real-world figures. With the VW scandal pushing regulators to use real-world figures, those PHEV emissions numbers are expected to rise substantially. To a lesser extent, hybrid emissions figures are also tested as artificially low. "Over the years, even without defeat devices, every carmaker has found ways to achieve fuel consumption and emissions results that have progressively diverged from the real driving conditions the customer experiences," Rinolfi said in the Automotive News Europe interview. Rinolfi is a little sunnier about compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles, estimating that CNG emissions are as much as 25 percent lower compared to conventional vehicles. As for battery-electrics, he's not so optimistic, estimating that there needs to be at least a tenfold improvement in energy efficiency for EVs to be truly competitive with conventional vehicles. "I've been waiting for a true breakthrough for the past 25 years, but I've not seen it yet," Rinolfi said about EVs in the Automotive News Europe interview.

VW exec calls US ops a 'disaster'

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

Today in the Tell Us How You Really Feel file we have Bernd Osterloh, head of Volkswagen AG's Group Works Councils and member of the company's supervisory board, labeling the company's US operations "a disaster." Why? Because Osterloh believes VW of America doesn't have the models it needs to be competitive here, hasn't been decisive enough about its plans and German higher-ups still don't understand the US market.
In truth, the top labor rep at the German conglomerate is echoing sentiments we've heard from VWoA executives for years, and there's been the same commentary from dealers: Germany doesn't pay enough attention to what the US market really wants. Even ex-VWoA CEO Stefan Jacoby, who preceded the recently departed Jonathan Browning, said early in his tenure that one of his tasks was to get his German bosses to start delivering what the US market demanded. New CEO Michael Horn is saying much the same thing seven years later, telling Sky News that it has to increase "the speed at which we bring new models to the market and innovation to the market."
Osterloh wants to get "more models" here, including a pickup truck, but we'd wonder if the economics have changed from when Jacoby said they'd need to sell 100,000 per year to make money. Osterloh also wants a decision on where the CrossBlue will be built. Although it looked as if the Chatanooga, TN plant would get the call, the Puebla, Mexico plant is still in the running because of lower operating costs. No matter what happens right now, Osterloh thinks the situation won't get better for another two years when revamped models arrive, but at least the company can start taking the steps for a better US future.

10 best new car deals of November 2021

Thu, Nov 4 2021

Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
