New Volkswagen Touareg 2.5 TDI Turbo – Ref. 716885-5005S

Restore the full power of your Touareg 2.5 TDI

On a Volkswagen Touareg fitted with the 2.5 TDI, a turbo in good condition makes itself felt immediately at the wheel: strong pull from low revs, no flat spot on acceleration, normal exhaust smoke, and that smooth, linear power delivery that is essential in a heavy SUV like the Touareg when driven under load or off-road. As soon as a turbo starts to wear, the driver notices a loss of performance, hesitation or an unusual whistling noise — all signs that it is time to act before further mechanical damage occurs.

Fitting advice for the Touareg 2.5 TDI

Premature turbo failure on this engine is most commonly caused by inadequate lubrication due to poor-quality oil or a neglected oil change, a clogged air filter, or a damaged intercooler allowing contaminants through. Before fitting, check the condition of the oil circuit, the cleanliness of the hoses and air intake, then prime the turbo with oil before starting the engine for the first time. Allowing proper warm-up and cool-down periods when driving will also help extend the life of the turbo on your Touareg.
