Volkswagen Touareg (2012)

Wednesday, 31 January 2018 12:13 AM The 2012 Volkswagen Touareg faced significant issues with its navigation system updates, particularly with the RNS-850 unit. A user reported a nightmare experience trying to update the maps, which led to a recommendation to replace the 5F module at a cost of $2304.76. This highlighted the need for better training and support from VWs service departments. I think such costly and complicated updates can really deter loyal customers.

Wednesday, 21 March 2012 12:12 PM In a long-term test review, the 2012 Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI was praised for its handling and performance, despite some drawbacks like a poor low-speed ride on steel coils and slightly disappointing fuel consumption. The review noted that the cars LED daytime running lights and cornering lights were particularly impressive. I believe the Touaregs balance between comfort and performance makes it a solid choice in its class.

Thursday, 15 March 2012 06:05 AM Consumer Reports provided reliability data for the 2012 Volkswagen Touareg, indicating that the vehicle had mixed reliability across various components such as the engine, transmission, and electrical system. The data was gathered from subscriber surveys and helped predict future reliability. This kind of data is crucial for potential buyers looking to avoid lemons.

Tuesday, 21 February 2012 12:30 AM The 2012 Volkswagen Touareg was available in four main trim levels: Sport, Lux, Executive, and Hybrid. Each trim came with various engine options, including a gasoline V6 and a turbodiesel V6. The Sport trim was well-equipped with features like bi-xenon headlights, foglights, and a power liftgate. I think the variety in trim levels and engine options makes the Touareg appealing to a wide range of buyers.
