    You should watch for them, and run, run as fast and as far away as you can.

        Honestly I'd rather buy something bigger if I were going the SUV route. They're decievingly small.

            Do a search for touareg transmission/valve body problems. They are also prone to have center bearing support failures where the support that hold up the drive shaft fails.

            I was looking at touaregs of that generation and they have some major problems. I took one to 5th ave for a prepurchase inspection and just the parts o fix the tranny was $5K.

            Run fast and far.
