REYT THEN

[@hallkbrdz]

As a v10 owner, glad to see this video for some ideas.

[@dermotmckee1418]

Lads I cant figure out why theres negative comments on these v10 videos. You have to hand it to darkside for tackling the v10 touareg. I personally think there the ultimate diesel engine. Keep the great vids coming on the touareg!!! 👍👍👍🇬🇧

[@mikedowland9949]

Yes mate totally agree! Keeping the content fresh and not doing what everybody else is doing is a winner for me👍

[@siraff4461]

I agree. Just don't buy one from Shack...

[@geetek78]

It's nice to see that someone has the resources to fix up these beasts! I'd own one in a heartbeat, if i had money, space, a ramp, and mechanical aptitude! :D

[@sh0nad0g]

Nice job! I also had that tandem pump oil leak on my ‘04 V10, dripping oil onto the cat. Also both manifolds were cracked- they are stainless so I ended up taking the engine out to do TIG them up and sort the tandem pumps. Good shout on the plate to protect the aux heater hoses 👍🏻

[@Timoastra]

Wheeler Dealers did a recent episode on a gen 1 Cayenne Turbo where Ant made the tool needed to loosen the residual pressure valves. Seemed pretty straight forward.

No oil leaks, great condition. Said Shak from Brum. A few weeks later after throwing the whole toolbox and a load of time/money at it he's close to right.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

Nearly correct!

[@Ducatista189]

I would say you guys are the most qualified to be working and tweaking this car. I have an Audi Q5 3.0TDI here in the states and I love the VW diesels. I don’t dare start digging into modding it. So many sensors and other expensive things under the hood. I’m perfectly happy satisfying my curiosity about the potential of these engines with you guys who know what your doing. Keep doing what your doing the way you best see fit.

[@jackmillin]

Really enjoying this series and the information you go into explaining things. If it was a discovery or the same old same old it wouldn't be as interesting, hats off to you for doing something different.

Hi Ryan tha's from tarn so make your own gaskets out of corn flake boxes, works just as good and costs nowt. music to a yorkshireman lol. bodged many an earthmover engine and gear box in my day when i used to work at griemy as a diesel mechanic,,in fact your buildings are actually built on where the old Euclid garage and fitting shops used to exist fond memories

[@TheBlaert]

Nice job. Interesting as hell to see just how complex these beasts actually are

[@jacobscutzlas8712]

Please let us know / make a video on how the air retention valve install goes. This is a very common problem and I think a lot of us fellow Touareg owners would benefit on a good video on how to do it.

[@Clappers89]

It's all in the name of science, love it cracking build

[@stephenjones6902]

Great video, I have a Touareg 3.0 TDI Escape with low range and locking diffs its excellent

[@zimbab5748]

So greatful you guys are doing this build!! It's awesome, and you're moving fast! I recently bought one of these in the Dominican Republic, hadn't run for a few years due to electrical issues. Watch out for the fuse box on LH, they all fill up with water, from the bottom. And the two engine ECU plugs, especially the one in the middle, they can get moisture.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

Cheers!

[@Craig_Stewart]

The tool to remove the valves is about 25 quid. You guys could make one. A small piece of round bar drill a hole through and put a pin each side. Nice! 👍👍 love the videos guys keep em' coming 👏👏

[@user-kk4sn7ir6z]

This was demonstrated on a wheeler dealer episode with a Porsche Cayanne turbo, they ended up making their own tool to remove the valve

Haha, TowRig is its new term

With the residual air valves I've seen people make a tool with a socket and some pins. I personally just used some vice grips and a rag haha. Did the trick though. I'd imagine you would want to do them a bit more professionally though.

I said just rag them out....

are the EGR deletes like the Mercesed OM617? where you tap in some freeze out plugs into the manifold, and reinstall the plumbing so it retains the OEM look?

[@C_R_O_M________]

Hi, you mentioned greasing the turbo linkages. How do you get access to them? Once in a while I get them (or one of them) stuck and the car goes into limp mode. It is always cold weather when that happens and it always fixes itself when I turned the vehicle off and start her back again. It hasn't done it for about a year now so maybe there was some grease crud that somehow got loose and the linkage is again free to work as it should but I'd like to be able to access them and see what's going on in there (and grease them of course). Thanks.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

With the arch liner out you can see them ;)

do you need to map out the EGR? Mines a 2004 and doesn't have the EGR Cooler, considering getting the EGR Delete kit, but need to know if i need to get it mapped afterwards or is the map just to turn off the emissions light?

Ryan, what's your view on EGR delete when its MOT time? (Is it just a case of smoke density, so it's not actually an immediate fail?) Also of note: "Bagpiping Andy"........did he look that up on urban dictionary before deciding the name......

[@UncalBertExcretes]

To be fair your engine needs to be a right shit box to fail an emissions test. Theres tons of old diesels out on the road with none of this emissions tech installed on them, they get through mot's no prob. All this emissions tech just helps engines burn cleaner for longer. There will become a time where he will need this stuff back on the car to pass an mot, or rebuild the engine so it no longer pollutes beyond the legal limit
