I purchased a 2007 Volkswagen Touareg with a V10 TDI. The camshafts and lifters were quite worn, so those are getting replaced. After further inspection, I found both exhaust manifolds were cracked on the cylinders furthest to the rear of the vehicle. I am considering replacing both turbos, as one is getting a little loose, but still would work good for a while at least.
Question, what do you think about welding / or replacing the exhaust manifolds? They seem quite common to crack, so it may be more prudent to install updated, or modified components.
Do you know if the 2.5 TDI exhaust manifolds with (I am not sure what turbos) would fit in the Touareg?
Thanks
