Just got my offer for my prior lease on a 2016 Touareg that I sold to Carmax. Offer is $2k as a former lessee. Sold in March to CarMax for lease payoff and walked away to take advantage of a 20% off sale on the SS that I acquired. Quite happy with that!

I am turning one in, but I am in Utah and I don't have a cargo cover.
I did get my offer letter today. Notarized and uploaded already. Time to see how long it takes for them to approve it and schedule it. Hopefully soon as I take delivery on the replacement, a 2015 Touareg TDI, on the 28th of this month!
A friend texted me and told me he got his offer the same day as me. We both submitted them the same day. my zip is 84032 and his is 84049

So I just got an offer letter for a 3.0 where the restitution has been reduced because of a former owner's claim. Their claim should be invalid as far as everything I know about the vehicle history (sold after 1/31/17 and owned before 9/18/15) but for now I'm going ahead with submitting the offer as is and hoping for the "top up" they promise if it ends up being invalid.
Has anyone here with a similar situation actually gotten a top up yet? I wonder how tough its gonna be to get it!

Earliest buyback appointments are a month away. No one even got ANY money for 3.0s yet

Hmm, I keep looking at Gen 2s and let one with saddle brown interior slip away. The tan just isn't cutting it in another one i found. Way more pieces involved than the interior swap my brother is doing in his v10.

Have appointments scheduled for both my 2012 Touareg Buyback and 2014 Touareg Emissions Payment on July 5th, and an Emissions Payment appointment for my wife's Q5 on July 6. That's going to be a good week!

Just got my final approval yesterday for my 2016 Touareg Lux. $2k coming my way for leasee restitution. I dumped the car on CarMax in March for lease payout. Happy to be done with this!

I finished the process yesterday. I took the trade-in option, as my dealership went out of their way to find an A7 that matched every criteria I gave them.
A WORD OF CAUTION....I was the first person to go through the buyback process opting for a trade in (In that dealership). Upon reviewing the purchase agreement for the replacement vehicle, I noticed that they applied the Trade-in as a cash down payment, not a "Trade-in". This is obviously problematic since I did not receive the trade-in sales tax reduction. I pointed the error out to the finance manager who insisted that they could not technically treat my buyback trade-in as a TRADE-IN. A couple of phone calls later (and an additional hour twiddling our thumbs), the general manager came in to the office to apologize for their error. New paperwork was drawn up and I received the full tax benefit of the trade-in.

I was the first touareg owner to complete the process. Took 10 mins. Had check engine light, def light, and tpms light. Not one mention of any of them. Plus a significant recent scratch. Process was simple minus losing the best vehicle I've ever had. Now to find a f250/2500 to pull the camper...and an alh to commute with.

Got 6 appointments tomorrow. 1 car has completely dead battery. Hopefully it will go smoothly.
Police action you say...exactly what would the police have done?

I had the same issue, just left the car running and it went through just fine. I had a manual transmission so I was able to push start it.

Yeah I am not worried. Worst case, I will go buy a $50 refurb battery and come back. I have 6 of their 8 appointments for the day so I have plenty of time lol
