Hi Folks,
Years ago I saw a V10 tdi in our little city of Eugene, OR. For some reason it really caught my attention.
A few years later we were ready to make a move on a low mileage '04 Touareg V10. The jackass (best word for it) dealer (Audi of Houston, ahem see the reviews) played every game in the book it seems, so we called it quits. Bought a local B7 Audi A4 2.0 Quattro Avant 6MT. Cheap, nice, hauls stuff, good MPG and sporty...but it can't tow.
I still potentially see a V10 in our future. And despite being a pro tech, etc, etc, I don't have time to do excessively major repair projects. Hands are very full with so many projects as it is.
I guess the main concerns for me are:
1. What are the engine issues, if any?
2. Same for transmission
3. Other areas of concern or that can be costly to repair or are prone to issues?
Anyone with 200K miles that has owned for a number of years is especially encouraged to expound their story!
Fundamentally love what this vehicle is about......
Thanks everyone,
Gary
